PM Modi leads country in lighting diyas to express resolve to win anti-corona battle
NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who led people on Sunday to express country's resolve to fight and win the battle against the coronavirus malady, shared his photographs showing himself lighting up a lamp.
He shared four pictures showing him lighting up the lamp while standing in darkness.
On his Twitter handle, he also shared a shloka: "Shubham Karoti Kalyanam, Deepam Shubham Karoti Kalyaannam – Aarogyam Dhana-Sampadaa Shatru-Buddhi-Vinaashaaya Diipa-Jyotir-Namostute," to drive home the message.
शुभं करोति कल्याणमारोग्यं धनसंपदा ।शत्रुबुद्धिविनाशाय दीपज्योतिर्नमोऽस्तुते ॥ https://t.co/4DeiMsCN11

Broadly translated, the Sanskrit couplet means salutations to the light of the lamp which brings auspiciousness, health and prosperity and destroys inimical feelings.
Earlier today, he had reminded people to light up lamps on Sunday night to show country's collective resolve to fight coronavirus.
