Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to have a busy day on August 25th, with a packed schedule that spans multiple states and focuses on various initiatives. The day will begin with the 113th episode of his popular radio program, ‘Mann Ki Baat,’ at 11 AM. This monthly broadcast will be aired on Akashvani and Doordarshan, as well as the AIR News website and the Newsonair mobile app. It will also be live-streamed on various platforms, including the YouTube channels of AIR News, DD News, PMO, and the Information and Broadcasting Ministry.
The previous episode, the 112th, saw PM Modi praise the athletes who represented India at the Paris Olympics. He highlighted the significance of their performance in bringing pride to the nation and encouraged continued support for Indian athletes. He also took the opportunity to recognize the achievements of the winners of the Mathematics Olympiad, who won four gold and one silver medal for India.
Following the ‘Mann Ki Baat’ address, PM Modi will head to Jodhpur, Rajasthan, to attend the concluding ceremony of the platinum jubilee celebrations of the Rajasthan High Court. This event will be held on the High Court campus, and PM Modi will also inaugurate the high court museum, according to the Press Trust of India (PTI).
Later in the day, PM Modi will travel to Jalgaon in Maharashtra, where he will felicitate 11 lakh ‘Lakhpati Didis,’ women who have been empowered through various economic initiatives. He will also distribute around ₹ 2,500 crore to 4.3 lakh self-help groups (SHGs), benefiting 48 lakh members. Additionally, PM Modi will facilitate bank loans worth ₹ 5,000 crore to 2.35 lakh SHGs, impacting 25.8 lakh members. These efforts demonstrate PM Modi’s commitment to economic empowerment and social upliftment, particularly for women.
Meanwhile, in Haryana, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will kickstart its ‘Maha Jansampark Abhiyan’ on August 25th. This campaign aims to engage with voters and strengthen the party’s presence ahead of the state elections scheduled for October 1st. The BJP plans to open election offices in almost 20,000 booths across Haryana. This initiative represents a major effort to connect with voters on a grassroots level and solidify the BJP’s position in the state. The party is currently serving its second term in Haryana.
As PM Modi embarks on his multi-state journey, another region faces challenges. Nagaland is on high alert due to heavy rainfall predicted by the India Meteorological Department (IMD) until August 25th. An orange alert has been issued for the state, indicating the potential for intense showers. The IMD weather update also states that Assam, Meghalaya, Manipur, Mizoram, and Tripura are likely to experience heavy rainfall on specific dates. This underscores the importance of staying vigilant and prepared for potential weather-related challenges.
