1. When Lord Sri Rama was in Vanavasa, the subjects of Ayodhya observed such austerities that they stopped taking food more than once, slept on the floor, and did not indulge in any festivals. No marriages, no babies born in 14 years Lockdown is for a good cause

2. Globalisation's gift to humanity is the culture of consumption. This use-and-throw generation and the madness of doing everything now and fast - Both these get a pause.

This lockdown teaches us the lesson of necessity vs want

Thank you teacher,
@narendramodi Ji

3. In the rat race of living, even though we wish, we could not stop, take a pause and look at all those who are hungry around us. Including animals. This lockdown gave time to our good hearts to extend our hand of comfort to those in need

Thank you @narendramodi Ji

4. I believe this is a war using modern biowarfare. All those who oppose lockdown must think if this were physical war, would they not put up with inconveniences so that our country could win.

Thank you for your brave leadership @narendramodi Ji

5. Yes, there are uncertainties. Financial or otherwise. But in
Modi Ji's India, you will not be left alone. You will not starve. If any of you needs help, access those channels that are set up for the purpose.

Thank you for this care @narendramodi Ji

6. All those healthcare professionals who have not seen their families in a while whose children cry so unconsolably, will any of them say this lockdown is not necessary?

I prostrate to every one of them. In this biowarfare, they are the real soldiers.

🙏 @narendramodi Ji.

Finally, can you not see - the countries which placed economy above people's lives paid dearly with this deadly pandemic. Countries like India and New Zealand which placed lives above living went into lockdown and they are winning.

Thank you @narendramodi Ji and @jacindaardern
