Amid fierce criticism that the government is facing over its handling of the pandemic, PM Modi in his address at an online farmers' event said he empathizes with citizens suffering due to Covid.
Calling the virus an invisible enemy, PM said the pandemic, which is worst in 100 years, is testing the world at every step. Condoling the lives lost due to the virus, the Prime minister said, he is feeling the pain citizens are suffering. 'As your pradhan sevak, I share your sentiment', he added.
The PM also said his government was doing everything to make sure that maximum people get vaccinated.
