New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi today addressed the last episode of ‘Mann ki Baat’ of the year. While wishing the country a happy new year, PM Modi appealed to make the Fit India Movement a success with the special importance of 108 points.
PM Modi said that this is the 108th issue of ‘Mann Ki Baat’, and 108 issues have special significance here. 108 in the rosary, 108 chanting, 108 divine spheres, 108 stairs, 108 bells, the number 108 is associated with immense faith. That’s why the episode of Mann Ki Baat 108 has become special. How many examples of public participation have we seen in this? On reaching this milestone, we have to resolve to move faster. Tomorrow’s sunrise will be the first sunrise of 2024. Now after reaching this stage, we have to take a pledge to move forward afresh, with new energy and at a faster pace.
The Bollywood actor, Akshay Kumar who has been quietly working on his fitness for years, was one of the many personalities from different walks of life who shared their tips on fitness in the 108th episode of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s monthly radio programme ‘Mann Ki Baat’, the last for the year 2023.
Thanking the prime minister for giving him a platform to share his thoughts with the people of the country, Akshay said, “You all know I’m passionate about fitness, but I’m even more passionate about staying fit the natural way. What I like more than fancy gyms is swimming, playing badminton, climbing stairs, exercising with ‘mudgar’, eating good healthy food.
‘This year we have achieved many achievements. The country became the fifth largest economy. G20 was organized successfully. Today every corner of the country is full of confidence. We have to maintain this spirit next year also. Even today many people have been sending me messages for the success of Chandrayaan-3. Women scientists are especially praised a lot. The whole country was happy when Natu-Natu won the Oscar. This year our athletes also performed well in sports. The players performed brilliantly in the Cricket World Cup. The achievements of players in many sports have increased the prestige of the country”, said the prime minister in Mann Ki Baat.
