Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday announced that a major nationwide 'Mera Yuva Bharat' platform will be launched on the birth anniversary of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, on October 31. The name of this platform is 'Mera Yuva Bharat', i.e. 'My Bharat' and it will provide an opportunity for the youth of India to play an active role in various nation-building events, PM Modi said while addressing the 106th edition of his monthly radio program 'Mann Ki Baat'. Meanwhile, while speaking to reporters, Thakur also noted the record-breaking sales of Khadi this month, which found a special mention in PM Modi's monthly radio programme. During his address, PM Modi said, "You will be pleased to know of another fact that earlier in the country, the sale of Khadi products could barely touch thirty thousand crore rupees; now this is rising to reach almost 1.25 lakh crore rupees." "The rise in sales of Khadi means its benefit reaches myriad sections across cities and villages," he added. (ANI)
