Amid conditions that have stopped the world from spreading coronavirus, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has announced a 21-day lockdown to fight the pandemic. On April 3, the Prime Minister of India urged the country to thank those who are working to curb the damage caused by the epidemic.
PM Narendra Modi asked the people to turn off the lights in their homes at 9 pm on April 5 and light the candles on their balcony for nine minutes. The citizens of the country well received the Prime Minister’s appeal. As soon as the clock struck 9, Indian citizens lite up diyas, candles, and free flashlights on their balconies.
However, some people have started cracking fireworks to show their solidarity with the pandemic. The exquisite action of the fireworks was not welcomed by many celebrities, including former Indian cricketer Irfan Pathan.
“It looks great until the PPL #IndiaVsCorona explosion starts,” Irfan Pathan wrote on his Twitter. However, some people hit back at him and bombarded him for raising his voice against the crackers.
It was so good untill ppl started bursting crackers #IndiaVsCorona

Irfan Pathan has involved in spreading awareness amid the lockdown
During this critical time, Irfan Pathan raised awareness of the pandemic through his Twitter. Pathan, along with his brother Yusuf, was actively involved in the delivery of needed goods.
The Pathan duo distributed 10,000 kg of rice and 700 kg of potatoes in their hometown of Baroda. Irrfan also posted several tweets and urged his fans to stay inside the house during the war against the pandemic. The left-handed Pacer urged his followers not to panic and spread the false news at this time.
Along with the Pathan brothers, many cricket fraternity members, including Sourav Ganguly, Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Ajinkya Rahane and Suresh Raina have come forward and donated to the PM Cares Relief Fund to fight the coronavirus.
