PM Modi calls on nation to share ideas for Sunday's Mann Ki Baat

He said, 'Democracy is our strength and we will have to always make our democratic fabric stronger'

Continuing his trend of interacting with the masses through his radio programme, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has called on the nation again to contribute ideas and thoughts for next Sunday's 'Mann Ki Baat'.

This will be the 22nd edition of the Prime Minister's radio programme.

Prime Minister Modi said in a series of tweets:

Have been going through ideas received for #MannKiBaat on the App & must say they are enriching & innovative. Kudos to the contributors.

We recall with pride, the firmness demonstrated by India’s political leadership in 1999, which ensured a decisive victory in Kargil.

Will urge you all to keep sharing your ideas for this Sunday’s #MannKiBaat on the App. https://t.co/TYuxNNJfIf

Last edition of the show was on 26th June, where he branded the 1975 emergency period as a black day for the country and expressed happiness over the fact that the people in India have always given importance to democracy.

"Very often 'Mann Ki Baat' is criticised, but this is possible because we are in a democracy. Do you remember June 25-26, 1975.it was the darkest night for democracy. Democracy is our strength and we will have to always make our democratic fabric stronger," he said.

Last Sunday, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal addressed the nation in a similar style of programme titled 'Talk to AK', where he hit out at the Modi government of turning its ties with Delhi government into an "India-Pakistan" type situation and said absence of obstacles would have helped him achieve four times of what has been done so far in the city.
