Pragya Thakur, BJP MP, says recite Hanuman Chalisa to eradicate Coronavirus.
Pragya Thakur bizarrely claimed that if all the Hindus in India, recite Hanuman Chalisa, then the novel COVID-19 virus will be defeated.
On Saturday, BJP MP Pragya Thakur urged people to recite the Hanuman Chalisa five times a day till August 5, which, according to her, will eradicate the Coronavirus from the country. August 5, is an auspicious day when the Bhoomi pujan or the ground-breaking ceremony will be done to construct the Ram temple at Ayodhya. The Member of Parliament from Bhopal took to her Twitter and appealed to the people of making a spiritual effort to end the novel COVID-19 pandemic. She urged people to recite Hanuman Chalisa five times a day from July 25 to August 5. Thakur further asked the people to conclude the ritual by lighting lamps on August 5 and offer ‘aarti’ to Lord Ram, staying at home.
The country will be free of Coronavirus after the recitation of the Hanuman Chalisa, claims Pragya Thakur:
The MP from Bhopal then posted a video on Twitter, in which she revealed that Madhya Pradesh’s capital, Bhopal will go under lockdown till 4 August. She lauded the efforts of the BJP government in MP and stated how the government is taking measures to contain the spread of the Coronavirus. Pragya Thakur said,” Though the lockdown will be over on August 4, this ritual (reciting the prayer of Lord Hanuman) will end on August 5, when ‘Bhoomi pujan’ for Ram Temple in Ayodhya will be performed. We will celebrate that day like Diwali.”
Thakur further bizarrely claimed that when people, Hindus, from across the country will recite “the Hanuman Chalisa” in one voice, it will work, and the nation will be free of the Coronavirus. Thakur then told people,” this is your prayer to Lord Ram”.
