India has gotten used to lockdown announcements due to Covid-19. However, every time one hears that PM Modi will address the nation, the heart beats faster, doesn't it?

Prime Minister Narendra Modi will address the nation at 5 p.m. on Monday at a time when there is a declining trend in cases of Covid-19 in the country after a deadly second wave in April-May.

Sources indicated that the Prime Minister may speak on the prevailing coronavirus situation in the country as many states have started the process of unlocking from Monday.

As Delhi, Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh and Tamil Nadu started unlocking from Monday with cautious steps, it is expected that the Prime Minister will warn the people to take the pandemic seriously despite the openings and follow safety measures taking cognisance of the prediction of the third wave of the coronavirus.
