The Prime Minister has held several meetings with chief ministers of all states since the pandemic hit the country in 2020.

Ahead of several festivals, Modi on Sunday had urged people to stay alert to the threat from the coronavirus and continue to follow Covid-appropriate behaviour.

In his monthly Mann Ki Baat radio broadcast, the Prime Minister said the festival of Eid, Akshaya Tritiya, birth anniversary of Bhagwan Parashuram and Vaishakh Budh Purnima will be celebrated in the coming days. “All these festivals are festivals of restraint, purity, charity and harmony.

“In the midst of all this, you also have to be alert of corona (virus). Wearing a mask, washing hands at regular intervals, whatever are the necessary measures for prevention, keep following them,” he said.
