Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced his decision to address the nation at 8pm on Tuesday.
This comes a day after PM Modi indicated that lockdown may not end completely but curbs will be further eased. Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday said he was of the firm view that the measures needed in the first three phases of lockdown were not needed "in the fourth", and asked the states to come up with a roadmap by May 15 on how to deal with various aspects of the gradual easing of the lockdown.
With that said, meme makers are back to the game of providing the internet with hilarious memes and jokes on PM Modi's latest address to the nation.
In the first few minutes, netizens grew impatient as one user even asked why there is no 'Skip Intro' option in the speech.
"Why doesn't this speech come with a Skip Intro option?" he wrote.
Here are more memes and jokes:
In the main highlight of his speech, PM Modi spoke of the new Rs 20 lakh crore economic package for a self-independent India. "This is 10 per cent of India's GDP. From tomorrow, everyday FM will address the reforms and it will boost the Make in India initiative," PM Modi added.
PM Modi also took a leaf out of Mahatma Gandhi's book and requested India to buy local products.
Admitting that the coronavirus will be an integral part of our lives for the while, PM also stressed on lockdown 4.0. "On taking advice from the states, we will give you a full low down before May 18," he said.
