Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to address the nation at 8.00 pm tonight. The confirmation was given by the Prime Minister’s Office.

Even though the topic of the PM’s address is not clear, it is being speculated that it might be related to the heightened tensions between India and Pakistan and the subsequent ceasefire implemented on Saturday.
