“It is a programme of the people, for the people and by the people,” PM Modi had said.
In the last broadcast, PM Modi had said: “It is a big success of the programme that it has been kept away even from the shadow of the government during its 110 episodes.”
“When we meet the next time, it will be the 111th episode of Mann Ki Baat,” he said.
The Prime Minister’s outreach programme was deferred before the 2019 general elections as well, given the implementation of MCC.
