All the countries of the world are reeling from the effects of the COVID-19 Corona Virus Pandemic and India has also been severely hit. Already, many lives have been lost and thousands of affected people are under quarantine and getting treated. Social distancing and self isolation are considered to be the best methods to prevent the spread of this virus and the Indian Government has already announced a 21-day lockdown period across the nation. In his latest address to the citizens of India, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has asked the people to unite in the fight against the Corona Virus and as a unifying initiative, he has asked everybody to switch off all the electric lights in their houses at 9:00 pm, for 9 minutes, on April 5th (Sunday).
Modi has asked everybody to light up their houses with lamps, diyas, candles, mobile phone flashlights and torchlights to fight the darkness brought on by the Corona Virus! In a latest tweet put up by Megastar Chiranjeevi, he has expressed his solidarity towards the PM's request and called for everybody to unify and follow Modi's directive. He has asked people to come together and stand for our country and reiterate that we stand for each other! Chiru has been very instrumental in setting up the Corona Crisis Charity (CCC) an initiative to help the daily wage workers of the Telugu Film Industry (TFI). Many stars from Tollywood have been donating for this initiative.
