One of the most deadly pandemics of recent times is the COVID-19 Corona Virus, that has been sweeping the world, leaving thousands dead and hundreds of thousands seriously ill, in its wake. Though India has also been affected, even the World Health Organization (WHO) has lauded the country's efforts to control the spread of this virus. However, our Prime Minister Narendra Modi has called for a Janata Curfew on March 22nd (Sunday) and requested that all the people stay inside their houses from 7:00 am to 9:00 pm. Many top celebrities have been endorsing the PM's move and putting up social media posts, encouraging their followers to ensure that the Janata Curfew is a success.
Earlier today, Superstar Rajinikanth too put up a Twitter post with a Video, urging everybody to follow the Janata Curfew. However, in his message, he had detailed that India is currently facing Phase 2 of the Corona Virus and mentioned that following the Janata Curfew would ensure that our country does not move into the Phase 3! This has been construed as spreading rumours by Twitter and the tweet has been taken down by the social media platform. It has been quoted that the tweet has been removed as it violates the guidelines of Twitter.
