Mann Ki Baat (101st episode, May 28, 2023)

"INDIA'S STRENGTH IS

IN ITS DIVERSITY."

The 'Mann Ki Baat' programme worked to bring people together. People's love for 'Mann Ki Baat'
is unprecedented and heart-warming. In a way, the entire country became intertwined during the
broadcast of Mann Ki Baat's 100th episode. Many people from various countries and time zones
around the world tuned in to hear the 100th episode. Only the achievements of the country and its
people are discussed in "Mann Ki Baat." This programme's greatest strength is public participation.
An excerpt of the 101st episode of PM Narendra Modi's monthly broadcast Mann Ki Baat.

THE 'YUVA SANGAM' INITIATIVE: India's strength lies in its diversity. Keeping this in view, the Ministry of
n
Education has taken an excellent initiative named 'Yuva Sangam'. The aim of this initiative is to increase
people-to-people connections and provide opportunities for the country's youth to interact with one
another.

n VISITS OTHER VILLAGES AND CITIES: Through "Yuva Sangam," youth travel to cities and villages
in other states, where they meet people from various backgrounds. In the first round of Yuva Sangam,
approximately 1200 youths visited 22 states across the country.

INFORMATION COMPILED: For the first time, necessary information about all of the country's museums
n
has been compiled. What is the museum's theme, what kinds of objects are kept there, and what are the
contact details? All of this is available in an online directory. Visit the country's museum whenever you have
the opportunity. Use the hashtag #MuseumMemories to share your captivating photos.

n AMRIT SAROVAR: Without water, there is always a crisis in life; the development of the individual and the
country also comes to a halt. With this future challenge in mind, 75 Amrit Sarovars are being built in each
district across the country. More than 50,000 Amrit Sarovars have been built to date. This is an important
step towards water conservation.

WATER CONSERVATION CAMPAIGN: Many youths are working through innovation and technology, but
n
many more are working to make society aware, such as the youth of Chhattisgarh's Balod district. A water-
saving campaign has been launched by the local youth. They go door-to-door to spread the word about
water conservation.

n KABIR OPPOSED EVERY EVIL PRACTISE. The path shown to us by Kabirdas is equally relevant even
today. Saint Kabir opposed every evil practise that divides society and tried to awaken it. Today, when the
country is moving forward with the resolve to develop, taking inspiration from Kabir, we should increase our
efforts to empower society.

INTERNATIONAL DAY OF YOGA: On June 21, we will also celebrate 'International Day of Yoga'.
n
Preparations are going on for that too, both in the country and abroad. You keep writing your 'Mann Ki Baat'
to me about these preparations as well. If you get any more information on any other subject, then let me
know that too.
