We can not ignore this situation. It would be nice if we accept this and fight with our full participation, this is the time when we all have to fight together and we have to give up our identity(cast, culture, color, and politics, etc.) and go ahead and cooperate.

If you are responsible, you will do whatever you can to your full potential, the thing is whether your heart beats or not? If yes, then it is only a matter of response.
