Prime Miniter Narendra Modi’s call for a dawn to dusk ‘Janata Curfew’ on Sunday, March 22 is a call for ‘Svadharma’. It was a part of his ‘address to the nation’ he delivered on Thursday, March 19. The address was in response to the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic wrecking havoc around the world.
While Modi’s Navagrah was a much more comprehensive appeal to his fellow citizens of India, the ‘Janata Curfew’ created a disproportionate buzz in the media. Many saw it as a rehearsal for things to come, perhaps a national lockdown in response to the COVID-19 spread. Regardless of its any future implications, Janata Curfew at its heart is an exercise in Svadharma.
Janta Curfew will prove to be a great start by the Indian Government to mobilize such a large and complex country requesting voluntary, active, and public commitments.
In view of the need to contain the spread of COVID 19, it was agreed that there is urgent need to extend the restrictions on the movement of non-essential passenger transport including inter-state transport buses till 31st March 2020.
