New Delhi, (thestates.news) Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday
underlined the emotional aspect of the battle against the virus, including
battling fear of being afflicted and the stigma attached by making people aware
of the high number of those who have defeated the virus and recovered.
‘Our priority must remain to help and support our corona warriors, doctors and
health care workers,’ he said in the second part of two-day interaction with
Chief Ministers via video conferencing to discuss the situation post Unlock 1.0
and plan for tackling the Covid-19 pandemic.
Mr Modi emphasised that Jan Bhagidari is essential in this fight and said that
people must be constantly reminded to use masks, face cover, and maintain
physical distancing.
As many as 15 States and UTs including Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, Delhi, Gujarat,
Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, West Bengal, Karnataka, Bihar, Andhra
Pradesh, Haryana, Jammu & Kashmir, Telangana and Odisha participated in the
interaction.
Mr Modi asked the States to take steps to boost infrastructure and construction
related work. He listed steps taken under Atmanirbhar Bharat to provide a
fillip to MSMEs, farming and agriculture marketing. He also underscored the
need to remain alert to effectively tackle the challenges faced by the migrant
labourers in the coming months.
The Chief Ministers thanked the Prime Minister for his leadership and briefed
him about the ground situation in the states and their preparedness to tackle
the impact of the virus.
They talked about health infrastructure available to meet the challenge and
steps taken to strengthen it further, support provided to frontline workers,
monitoring in containment zones, campaigns to encourage usage of masks and
other safety precautions, increase in testing, and providing gainful employment
opportunities to the migrants who have returned.
The Prime Minister mentioned that the collective commitment to fight against
the virus will lead the country to victory, while also talking about the need
to speed up economic activities with due precautions in place.uni
