When we say Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, it is not limited to the confines of India. It applies to the global context too.

Capacities of satellite and facilities it provides will go long way in addressing South Asia’s economic & developmental priorities

India will launch a South Asian satellite on May 5.

Let us devote ourselves towards a transformed India. #MannKiBaat pic.twitter.com/raLNTxUbe7

I’m also reminded of the great 12th century saint and social reformer from Karnataka Jagat Guru Basaveshwar.

We are happy to mark 1000th Jayanti of Shri Ramanujacharya. He contributed immensely to society and social equality.

Removing red beacons on the car is one thing. We are ensuring the VIP culture is removed from the minds of the select few 'VIPs' : PM pic.twitter.com/MGvo0H2pfN

Exit of red beacon is part of a system, but we have to make efforts to cleanse it out of our mind.

If you refer BhimApp to others, you can earn. If new member does 3 transactions, performs financial business thrice, you stand to earn Rs 10 for that.

I urge my young friends to get more and more people of the BHIM App during these holidays: PM @narendramodi #MannKiBaat pic.twitter.com/TQ34M7UdHg

I can tell you from my experience of going around the world, that the amount we can learn by seeing is something we cannot imagine. Go to a destination and spend three to four days there. Then go to the next and spend a like duration there. I wish you share your travel photographs with me, it will be nice. Make good use of #IncredibleIndia and share your experiences.

Do something out of the box: PM Modi

Technology evolved to reduce the distance, technology came in to being to end the boundaries. But the end result of this is that six people in same house are sitting in same room but they separated by unimaginable distances!

Get away from technology, and try to spend some time with yourself.

These holidays, make it about new experiences, go out of your comfort zone: PM @narendramodi #MannKiBaat pic.twitter.com/ck8Qpn3zQ4

Get out of your comfort zone: PM Modi tells youth

I have noticed children have taken a lead when it comes to putting a bowl of water for birds during the summers. During summers, many people come to our homes like postmen, milkmen and vegetable sellers. Always offer them water.

PM Modi expresses concern on climate change:

Temperatures are rising. No wonder this time when I asked for suggestions for Mann Ki Baat, people wrote about the summers.

Before Mann Ki Baat I get so many messages, thoughts and ideas on MyGov, Narendra Modi App and by post.

One comes across such wide spectrum of information,one finds every corner of country is filled with talented people.

Like selfless seeker, these countless people are consumed by desire to contribute something to society.
