Covid-19 is spreading faster and its threat is high as ever, Prime Minister said on Sunday. Addressing the nation through his monthly radio show Mann Ki Baat, he said wearing masks and social distancing has to continue.
The prime minister added that when one feels tired of wearing a mask, they should think of COVID warriors and their exemplary efforts.
“Today, COVID-19 recovery rate in our country is better than others. Our fatality rate is much less than most of the other countries. We managed to save the lives of lakhs of people, but the threat of coronavirus is not over yet.
It is spreading fast many areas, we need to remain vigilant”, said PM Modi.
He also recalled the thoughts of Mahatma Gandhi and the words of former PM Atal Bihari Vajpayee during his Red Fort address in 1999. The country is observing the 21st anniversary of the victory in the Kargil War on Sunday.
Talking about Rakshabandhan, which falls on August 3 this year, PM Modi said that people are linking it to “vocal and local” as it’s a chance to support local businesses.
