On Sunday, April 5, 2020, almost everyone in the country took part in Prime Minister Narendra Modi's nine-minutes light-out event amid COVID-19. Many people all around India came in solidarity with lighted candles outside their respective houses at 9 pm to pray for all the people who have been combating this pandemic. Among the many people, celebrities also joined them in this act of kindness.
However, amidst the activity, it was reported that in many places, people were bursting crackers like it was some festival. Talking about the same, Bollywood actor Sonam Kapoor addressed her concern on her Twitter handle. Sonam Kapoor said that people are bursting crackers acting like it is Diwali. She also went on to tell them about the dogs that are being harmed. Check out her tweet below.

Social distancing is a must ashokeji. Also making sure there isn’t communal infighting. So that the government can concentrate on doing good like they are. I’m sure you agree. You’re a sensible man who believes in being good and kind. https://t.co/FrPHYYoBsl

I’m not ‘beating’ around the bush. Like I said, Social distancing is a must. And ANYONE not following that whether they are Hindu or Muslim or Christian or Sikh is wrong. I’m sure you agree. You must have very important things to do now. I think we both made our point. 💓 & ✌️ https://t.co/3Tj3ViOI9R
