"'In a situation like today, we have to save the country from a lockdown. If you all work together, create awareness then there is no need for containment, never mind a lockdown.

We will take care of economic health as well as the health of countrymen," PM Modi said in his address to the nation, making it clear that a nationwide lockdown was off the table for now.
