"No time for complacence. No time to believe the Corona threat is over. I have seen videos of people totally letting down their guard & violating rules. Not okay. If you are careless and roam without masks, you endanger yourself, your family, children, elders", Prime Minister Modi has been quoted as saying.
Prime Minister Modi thus said that until and unless the Covid-19 vaccine is out, people need to continue taking precaution against the virus. He also informed that the government continues to device ways to efficiently distribute the vaccine once it is out.
