COVID-19 does not see race, religion, colour, caste, creed, language or borders before striking. Our response and conduct thereafter should attach primacy to unity and brotherhood. We are in this together: PM @narendramodi the tweet by the Prime Minister’s Office reads.
Modi’s statement comes after a Muslim congregation that sparked a wave of Covid-19 cases in India triggered outrage that later took an Islamophobic turn.
The PM also said that unlike previous moments in history, when countries or societies faced off against each other, today we are together facing a common challenge. “The future will be about togetherness and resilience,” the PM said.
