​Modi Coronavirus Lockdown Address: Top 5 things every Indian must not forget to decimate Covid-19

In an unprecedented decision, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday night, during his 8 PM address to the nation, took everyone by surprise after announcing a complete lockdown across the country for 21 days from Tuesday midnight. In case you missed PM Narendra Modi's address, here are top 5 things every Indian must be aware of to defeat coronavirus and emerge victorious over Covid-19 pandemic:-

1- SOCIAL DISTANCING

PM Modi asserted that social distancing is the only way out for the country in its decisive battle against the coronavirus.

2- LAKSHMAN REKHA 

PM Modi made a fervent appeal to the countrymen not to cross the 'Lakshman rekha' of their homes in the next three weeks. 

3- 21 DAYS-21 YEARS 

PM Modi warned any negligence in these 21 days will "push the country and your families by 21 years".

4- CORONAVIRUS LOCKDOWN 

PM Modi said, "Lockdown is being imposed on every state, union territory, district, village, mohalla and street. The lockdown will be like "curfew" and more stringent than the 'janata curfew', which the country had observed on Sunday, he said, adding it will have an economic cost but saving people's lives is of the paramount interest to his government. 

5-APPLICABLE ON EVERYONE 

PM Modi folded his hands a few times to emphasise his request to citizens to adhere to his call, saying it is applicable to everyone from the prime minister to a citizen in a village. 

Even countries like Italy, France and the US with world class infrastructure have been left helpless due to the spread of the disease despite their relentless efforts, he said, emphasising the gravity of the situation. 

Some people suffer from this wrong mindset that only infected persons need to follow social distancing, he said, warning that such a view can endanger lives of others and their families.
