Mann kiBaat – 100 episodes reach 100 crore listeners

New Delhi, Apr 25: “I was an unknown figure with little recognition for my accomplishments until the Prime Minister mentioned my name on the top-rated ‘Mann kiBaat’ programme. It was then that I became a hero and began to receive respect from people across the state,” recounted a sportsperson who uses a wheelchair.

Since 2014, Indian Prime Minister NarendraModi has been addressing the nation through his viral Mann Ki Baat program, engaging citizens on national importance and fostering a spirit of nation-building. The program approaches its 100th episode on April 30. This level of engagement underscores the tremendous impact that Mann Ki Baat has had in bringing the real India to the forefront beyond the narrow confines of big cities and Lutyens’s Delhi.
