Prime Minister Narendra Modi has urged people to stay guarded against COVID and the Omicron variant. He stressed that in such a situation, self-awareness and self-discipline of the people are the country’s strength in fighting against the new variant. He stated that it is the collective strength that will defeat COVID. He called upon people to step in the year 2022 with this sense of responsibility. Addressing the nation in his Mann Ki Baat programme on All India Radio on Sunday, Modi said scientists are studying the new Omicron variant and getting new data every day.

Country's first Chief of Defence Staff, General Bipin Rawat and his wife also lost their lives in the incident.  Modi said Varun Singh fought death bravely for many days, but succumbed to his injuries. He was given Shaurya Chakra in August just this year. Modi read out from the letter Captain Varun Singh had written to the principal of his school after receiving the honour. The Prime Minister said that even after reaching the pinnacle of success, Captain Varun Singh did not forget to nurture his roots.
