"He encourages people...": Babulal Marandi calls PM Modi's Mann Ki Baat "best program"

Ranchi (Jharkhand) [India], October 26 (ANI): Jharkhand's LoP and BJP leader Babulal Marandi on Sunday praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Mann Ki Baat program, saying that it shares valuable information and inspires people.
He called Mann Ki Baat the "best program" for motivating people and spreading awareness about national development.
Speaking to the reporters, Babulal Marandi said, "He gives a lot of information in this... He also discussed the rising obesity in the country and how to prevent it... He encourages the people and also shows where and how people are working. This is the best program of PM Modi, where he introduces people to all the developments that have taken place in the nation and motivates the people..."
Earlier in the day, PM Modi, during the 127th episode of Mann Ki Baat, called on citizens to adopt sustainable practices and take part in the 'Ek Ped Maa ke Naam' tree planting campaign, while highlighting grassroots innovations and community-led environmental conservation efforts across the country.

He praised several local initiatives that combine innovation with environmental protection, including the unique waste management model in Ambikapur, Chhattisgarh.
"In Ambikapur, Chhattisgarh, Garbage Cafes are being run. These are cafes where you get a full meal in exchange for plastic waste. If someone brings over 1 kilogram of plastic, they are provided with either lunch or dinner, and in place of 0.5 kilogram of plastic, they get breakfast. These cafes are run by the Ambikapur Municipal Corporation," PM Modi said, appreciating the initiative for converting waste into nourishment while promoting cleanliness.
Mann Ki Baat is Prime Minister Modi's monthly radio programme in which he discusses important national issues with the citizens of India. The programme is broadcast on the last Sunday of every month. Launched on October 3, 2014, Mann Ki Baat aims to connect with various segments of Indian society, encompassing women, the elderly, and the youth. (ANI)
