Lighting the lamp of hope and clearing ignorance

The PM of the country wanted the people of India as a nation to stand up in their balconies and windows with a lit lamp, lit candle, mobilephone torchlight at 9pm for 9 minutes on 5thApril.

Families came out on their balconies of independent houses ,flats and close to their homes with candle light , teacup lights and mobile torch lights to support the call.

Lighting of lamp is a ritual in any inauguration of an event or a seminar and other Indian programs. 

The lighting iof the lamp is a symbol of lighting up the occasion and having an intonation to the goddess of learning in colleges and learning institutions .

Gods and goddesses , idols and photos also have lamps kept and lit at sunset and dawn during which families worship the goddesses /god and sing songs or anthems .

Lighting the lamp is similar to the gun shot for the starting of  a race.

Light also is to clear ignorance of human beings and people on some topics 

This event symbolised that  light to clear ignorance related to the CoVID19 occurrence it’s dangers and safety guidelines. 

Families lit the candles and stood on the balconies and happily clicked pics and selfies 

9:09 pm local area had  clapping by the participants happily symbolising the agreement and obeying the suggestion of the PM

Some over enthusiastic groups had crackers to mark the end of the holding of lamps though the usual anti Hindu  groups found it like violation of Diwali SC guidelines

There was national awareness about the subject 

Some mischief mongers in the liberal presstitutes gang spread rumours of switching off lights in homes before lighting the lamps would result in grid breakdowns The stupid spam spread by the crooked press ignored the fact that every day people switched off lights and no local grids or state grids were put off to cause any damages.

All said and done the PM commands with his appeal and grace the support of the nation.

Many liberal press  specialists in insulting any Indian initiatives found the event funny and stupid.

Some accused this method as tantric superstitions after the nation had rang bells cymbals and conches as one united group at 5 pm on 22 nd March during the janata curfew  

The bells were rung to thank the humble seva warriors in the profession of doctors nurses and other law enforcement for their selfless service to the nation and who worked for the sick and affected 

Crazy to give such imaginary reasons for opposition 

Happy my family that participated with lights switched off at 9 Pm and sketched on by 9:11 pm

Thanks to the PM for switching on the minds of the nation and lighting up the nation with an intension to increase confidence and a sense of participation for the safety of its citizens 

Let happy days dawn soon
