PM Modi on Friday in his address to the nation, asked Indians under lockdown to switch off all lights at home at 9 pm Sunday (April 5) and light candles or diyas or use the flashlights on their mobile phones to mark the national fight against the coronavirus outbreak. PM Modi asked people to do this for nine minutes.
However, this request by PM Modi for the workers working during the lockdown backfired him on Twitter. People on Twitter slammed PM Modi for such steps and unable to curb the pandemic. Even a #ये_आदमी_पागल_हो_चुका_है started trending and people started making hilarious memes on Modi.
