Prime Minister Narendra Modi led the nation to express country’s resolve to fight and win the battle against COVID-19. At the stroke of 9 pm last night, India lit up candles, diyas and torch light following Prime Minister’s “9 pm, 9 minute” appeal. Mr Modi shared his photographs showing himself lighting up a lamp.
On his twitter handle, Prime Minister also shared a shloka: “Shubham Karoti Kalyanam, Deepam Shubham Karoti Kalyaannam – Aarogyam Dhana-Sampadaa Shatru-Buddhi-Vinaashaaya Diipa-Jyotir-Namostute,” to drive home the message.
