In his monthly radio show Mann Ki Baat, Prime Minister Narendra Modi asserted on Sunday that a lot of things are happening in India in the 21st century which are strengthening the foundation for a ’Viksit Bharat’. In the 113th episode of ‘Mann Ki Baat’, the Prime Minister said his Independence Day call for one lakh youth without any political background to join politics has evoked wide reactions and urged the youngsters to enter public life for a developed India and stronger democracy. Countless people from all walks of life joined the freedom movement even though they had no political background, PM Modi noted.

PM Modi said: ”They devoted themselves entirely to India’s independence. Today, to achieve the vision of a Viksit Bharat, we need to rekindle that same spirit once again.” A large number of young people are willing to join politics, and all they need is right opportunity and guidance, he said.



Modi said youngsters have written to him and reacted on social media to his call. They have noted that family politics suppresses new talent, he added. During the programme, Modi spoke to several young entrepreneurs helming different space start-ups as they highlighted their work.

They praised the growing vibrant space ecosystem in the country. The Prime Minister said the youth of the country has benefitted a lot from various reforms in the space sector. On the occasion, he noted that India celebrated its first National Space Day on August 23 to mark the first anniversary of the successful landing of its spacecraft on the Moon.

Highlighting works of different organisations and people in improving environment, he batted for collective efforts in the field. PM Modi expressed his happiness and noted that today, many start-ups in the country too are involving themselves in efforts with an aim to promote the environment. He said there is a team called e-conscious, that is using plastic waste to craft out eco-friendly products.

This idea struck them on seeing litter spread around at our tourist places, especially in hilly areas, he added. He mentioned a team comprising of like-minded people have begun a startup named Ecokaari, adding that they produce myriad beautiful items out of plastic waste.
