PM Modi Modi Sunday said he uses his monthly radio program to reflect the views and aspirations of the people of the countryNew Delhi: Answering his critics, prime minister Narendra Modi Sunday said he uses his monthly radio program 'Mann ki Baat' to reflect the views and aspirations of the people of the country rather than expressing his own opinions.
He said he had kept this three-year-old program away from politics and had tried to connect with the people without getting swayed by the (political) 'heat' and 'anger' that may prevail at any particular time.
In the 36th episode of the radio broadcast, Modi expressed confidence that social scientists, universities, research scholars and media experts would conduct analysis of the program and highlight its positives and negatives.
He said the 'Mann Ki Baat' program reflects positive strength of the country.
"(Through the program) I got a unique opportunity of connecting with the people and knowing their feelings, wishes, aspirations and even complaints and I never said that this is my 'Mann Ki Baat' (my voice)," the prime minister said.
He was clearly answering his critics from the opposition parties who have been accusing him of expressing only his views through the program and not listening to the voice of the people.
Modi said through this program, he reflects views of the people who keep sending him inputs through emails, by telephone and on MyGov app and NarendraModi app.
