PM Modi’s radio monthly programme completed its 100th episode today which was aired live at 11 am.
Union Minister Jitendra Singh also listened to the broadcast with the Indian diaspora in London and said that PM Modi has raised the esteem of the Indian Diaspora abroad, statement released by the Ministry of Science and Technology.
The world is looking up to the Indian Diaspora with great hope and expectation and it is high time that they also rise to the occasion, he added.
The programme, which started on October 3, 2014, has become a key pillar of the government’s citizen-outreach programme addressing multiple social groups such as women, youth, and farmers and has spurred community action.
Apart from 22 Indian languages and 29 dialects, Mann Ki Baat is broadcast in 11 foreign languages including French, Chinese, Indonesian, Tibetan, Burmese, Baluchi, Arabic, Pashtu, Persian, Dari and Swahili.
The 100th episode of PM Modi’s Mann Ki Baat is also being broadcast live at the UN headquarters.
