‘Felt different after coming to Delhi in 2014’: PM Modi
PM Modi said, “When I was the Chief Minister of Gujarat, it was natural to meet the common people there. Such is the work and tenure of the Chief Minister, there are many opportunities to meet. But after coming to Delhi in 2014, I found that life here is very different. The nature of work is different, the responsibility is different, the conditions are different, the frills of security and the limit of time. In the initial days, I used to feel different, I used to feel empty.”
“Fifty years ago, I did not leave my home because one day it would be difficult to contact the people of my own country. The countrymen who are my everything, I could not live separated from them. Mann Ki Baat gave me a solution to this challenge, a way to connect with the common man. The office and protocol remained confined to the system and public sentiment, along with crores of people, became an inseparable part of the world.”
