Modi described the Covid-19 pandemic as a “major disaster” while praising Indians for their adherence to the pre-existing self-curfew.

"If we are not able to manage the upcoming 21 days, we will be pushed back 21 years," Modi said.

At present, India has recorded over 519 cases of coronavirus infection with some 10 deaths so far.
