Raipur : Chief Minister Shri Vishnu Deo Sai joined the gathering at Pandit Deendayal Upadhyay Auditorium in Raipur to listen to the 128th episode of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi’s widely loved monthly radio address, Mann Ki Baat. Describing the episode as deeply inspiring, Chief Minister Shri Sai said that Mann Ki Baat has evolved into a national ritual that awakens and unites the country’s collective consciousness. “In every episode, the Prime Minister speaks to the nation as a guardian would to his family, guiding, encouraging and reminding us of our shared responsibility,” he observed.
Chief Minister Shri Sai noted that Mann Ki Baat has become a window through which innovation, people’s participation and exemplary grassroots efforts from every corner of India are brought to national attention. “Through this platform, individuals dedicated to nation-building receive the recognition they truly deserve,” he said. Referring to today’s address, he highlighted the Prime Minister’s appreciation of the record rise in foodgrain production, advanced methods of honey processing in several states, increased honey cultivation, naval empowerment, the establishment of the Naval Museum, the significance of nature farming, as well as the first-ever public recitation of the Gita in Saudi Arabia and the grand celebrations of Gita Mahotsav in Latvia and other countries — all of which, he said, “offer inspiration to every citizen.”
Emphasising that Chhattisgarh is well-positioned to take nature farming to new heights, Shri Sai said that farmers and young entrepreneurs in the state can achieve remarkable success in this field. He added that India’s rising foodgrain output includes a significant contribution from Chhattisgarh.
Reflecting on the Prime Minister’s address, the Chief Minister said today’s episode was rich with valuable insights. The Prime Minister spoke of Gen-Z innovators using space technology to test drones in Mars-like conditions, the inspirational journey from the unsuccessful Chandrayaan-2 to the triumphant Chandrayaan-3, the commendable performance of India’s women athletes, the grand Gita Mahotsav in Kurukshetra, the 3D Light & Sound Museum based on the Mahabharata, the commissioning of the indigenous warship INS Mahe, his recent visit to Bhutan, the fourth edition of the Kashi Tamil Sangamam in Varanasi, winter tourism and winter sports, and innovations across the country under the "Vocal for Local" movement, alongside numerous environmental protection efforts.
Speaker of the Chhattisgarh Legislative Assembly Dr. Raman Singh said that Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi is among the world’s most admired leaders, and through Mann Ki Baat he shares cultural, social and strategic insights with the people in a way that is accessible and transformative. “His experiences teach us how to take the local to the global,” he remarked, noting the special significance of listening to Mann Ki Baat on a day when the Prime Minister himself was present in Raipur.
Prime Minister Modi, in today’s episode, recalled the special programme held in the Central Hall on Constitution Day (26 November), and spoke of the nationwide celebrations marking 150 years of Vande Mataram. He also mentioned the raising of the Dharmadhwaja atop the Ram Temple in Ayodhya on November 25, and the inauguration of the ‘Panchajanya’ memorial at Jyotisar in Kurukshetra on the same day.
The Prime Minister described the opening of the world’s largest LEAP Engine MRO (Maintenance, Repair & Overhaul) facility in Hyderabad as a major leap in India’s aerospace capabilities. He highlighted the induction of INS Mahe into the Indian Navy and the launch of Skyroot’s ‘Infinity Campus’ as milestones in India’s burgeoning space ecosystem — symbols of India’s innovation, ambition and youthful energy. He also announced that India has achieved a historic feat in agriculture by producing a record 357 million tonnes of foodgrains — 100 million tons more than a decade ago. Celebrating India’s sporting excellence, he noted that the recent announcement granting India the hosting rights of the Commonwealth Games is a moment of national pride.
He also referred to the enthusiastic international participation in the Gita Mahotsav at Brahmasarovar, Kurukshetra. People from several European and Central Asian nations were drawn to the event, inspired by the Bhagavad Gita. Earlier this month, Saudi Arabia witnessed the first-ever public recitation of the Gita, while the festival in Latvia saw artists from Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania and Algeria taking part with great enthusiasm.
The programme in Raipur attended by Cabinet Minister Shri Kedar Kashyap, Cabinet Minister Smt. Laxmi Rajwade, Cabinet Minister Shri Khushwant Saheb, Jagdalpur MLA Shri Kiran Singh Deo, Raipur West MLA Shri Rajesh Munat, Raipur Rural MLA Shri Motilal Sahu, MLA Shri Anuj Sharma, former Arang MLA Shri Naveen Markandey, chairpersons of various boards and commissions, and a large number of distinguished citizens.
