PM Modi’s playful banter highlights
During a video-conference interaction with beneficiaries of the Viksit Bharat Sankalp Yatra, Prime Minister Narendra Modi shared lighthearted moments, from urging a sarpanch to secure her seat with “Apni kursi sambhaliye” to humorously stating, “Ab sarpanch woh hi ban jayengi.” Balveer Kaur, a farmer from Arnia, Jammu, discussed her village’s border location and her utilization of government schemes, including the Kisan Credit Card and Farm Machinery Bank Scheme.
PM Modi, acknowledging Kaur’s tractor purchase, playfully remarked, “You have a tractor; I do not even have a bicycle.” He emphasized the importance of spreading awareness about government schemes, urging Kaur to reach out to neighboring villages. The conversation highlighted the goal of Viksit Bharat Sankalp Yatra, aiming to learn from beneficiaries’ experiences and include those yet to avail benefits. The PM appreciated Kaur’s grassroots work and stressed the belief that all citizens should benefit from these initiatives. The lighthearted exchange also touched on the honesty of Indians and the Yatra’s purpose of bridging gaps in scheme awareness.
