First part of your answer makes total sense.  

Second part makes sense as well. Except I think it was part practice and part PR move by the government.  This got everyone across the board (right, left, liberal, conservative) to participate.  I’m already seeing messages on social media about how no one has been able to bring a nation together like Modi.  This is something he needed after all the protests of recent months.  The practice aspect of it will be very beneficial in case he needs to give a lockdown order like you said.  But call me a skeptic, I think it was also a massive nationwide PR.  

In India everything is celebrations , birth ,naming ceremony , to mrg to death . Even carrying body to funeral , some celebrate n bust crackers like kushi Kushi send off 😂

There is already a soft lockdown in India. Railways have stopped. Bihar, Punjab, Maharashtra, I think UP too is in lockdown. In Maharashtra, except essential services everything is closed. No local trains, no buses, nothing.

Even if they have done it sincerely they are bound to draw mileage out of it- isn’t that a part of the privilege people in the power have? They get to keep both bouquets and the brickbats!

@Bold: That’s the most alarming thing...Some of them its like they wouldn’t have done it if Modi didn’t tell them....They seemed more emotional and committed towards the curfew just because Modi called it- basically aimless and blind following....

But if China can do it so can India - it is the only solution
