COVID-19: Turn Off Lights For 9 Minutes Tonight

“If you light a lamp for somebody, it will also brighten your path.” ―Buddha

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced the Diya Jalao campaign a couple of days ago and asked people to light lamps on April 5 at 9 pm for 9 minutes. It is a call for unity to "fight the darkness of coronavirus pandemic". It is a step in the right direction to bring more awareness about COVID-19 and boost the morale of front-liners, health workers, police and the rest of India. Let us participate and light lamps to celebrate unity and brotherhood. Let us show to the world that India is united to fight against coronavirus.

“One moment can change a day, one day can change a life and one life can change the world.” ―Buddha

COVID-19: India Lockdown for 21 Days―Express Gratitude Every Day

"India has a tremendous capacity to deal with the coronavirus outbreak situation as it has experience of eradicating two pandemics, namely small-pox and polio." —Michael J Ryan, The executive director of the World Health Organisation

India locked down for 21 days to prevent coronavirus from spreading across the country. It caused panic in the Indian citizens but it is a step in the right direction.  

People are not comfortable with the lockdown but it is in the larger interests of our nation. India has a population of more than 1.3 billion and it is a big challenge to combat coronavirus. The developed nations including Italy, Span, France and America are battling to contain it despite having better healthcare facilities.

Convert the threat of lockdown into an opportunity. Mary Kom is practicing aggressively during the lockdown. Several high achievers are leveraging lockdown to grow professionally. Some celebrities are adding value through donations and community services. In my case, I do research on COVID-19 regularly and share the knowledge freely with the world.  I express my gratitude to each friend every day who helped me in the past. I talk to the friend over the phone, recall the past golden memories and thank him for all the help. It is an opportunity to build bridges.

Reinvent your habits during a 21-day lockdown. Convert this threat of lockdown into an opportunity to build a cleaner and better India. Jai Hind!

"There are no great people in this world, only great challenges which ordinary people rise to meet." —William Frederick Halsey, Jr.
