Ranveer Singh shared a post about Matterhorn on Instagram.

“Switzerland’s most famous mountain - the @zermatt.matterhorn lit up in the glorious Indian Tricolour. A message of solidarity and hope... A tribute to the indomitable human spirit. Light Art by @gerryhofstetter and @gabrielperren #inlovewithswitzerland @myswitzerlandin,” Ranveer captioned his post.

A more than 1,000-metre high Indian tricolour was projected onto the Matterhorn mountain in the Swiss Alps “to express Solidarity to all Indians in the fight against Covid-19”. In a tweet, the Embassy of India to Switzerland, The Holy See & Liechtenstein attached a picture of the mountain along with their tweet. Zermatt Tourism, which runs holiday activities in the Swiss Alps, had first tweeted the photo and posted it on their Facebook page.

On its Facebook page, the tour operator said: “As one of the most populous countries in the world, India is suffering from the Coronavirus crisis. The challenges in such a large country are immense. The Indian flag on the Matterhorn is intended to express our solidarity and give hope and strength to all Indians.” Zermatt Tourism has also posted photos of the flags of the US, the UK, Japan, and Germany on the mountain. The initiative also highlights the coordinated efforts of countries that have undertaken to fight the coronavirus pandemic.

On Saturday morning, Prime Minister Narendra Modi retweeted the post, saying: “The world is fighting COVID-19 together. Humanity will surely overcome this pandemic.”

The total number of coronavirus cases in India on Saturday increased to 14,378 with 11,906 active cases, while the death toll stood at 480, according to the Union Health Ministry.
