Prime Minister Narendra Modi is known for his unique style of delivering speeches. He is known to entice an audience with his articulate and spontaneous style of speaking. Because when he speaks, everyone listens. And so did the Indian diaspora in UK as they attentively listened to what the prime minister had to say. The prime minister in an interactive session at the diaspora event in Central Hall Westminster revealed the secret behind his stamina and his answer left the whole audience in splits.
When asked about what is the secret behind his stamina, PM Narendra Modi on Wednesday said, "Pichle 20 saal se main daily 1kg-2kg gaali khaata hu (In the last 20 years, I have consumed 1-2 kgs of verbal abuses daily)."
The whole audience applauded at PM Modi's answer and couldn't stop laughing. Even the prime minister laughed.
PM Modi is on a 3-day visit to UK. Earlier on Wednesday, while speaking at the 'Bharat Ki Baat, Sabke Saath' programme at the iconic Central Hall Westminster, PM Modi slammed his detractors and said his problem is not against criticism.
"To criticise, one has to research and find proper facts. Sadly, it does not happen now. What happens instead is allegations," PM Modi said.
"I want this Government to be criticised. Criticism makes democracy strong. Democracy cannot succeed without constructive criticism," he added.
Modi said earlier the government was centred around a family but people have shown that in democracy even a tea seller can become their representative and shake hands at the royal palace.
Noting that there is big difference between 'then and now ', Modi said, "when the policy is clear, intention is clear, and the intentions are noble, then you can achieve the desired result."
Responding to a question, Prime Minister Modi said impatience is not a bad thing. "If a person has a cycle, a person aspires a scooter. If a person has a scooter, a person aspires a car. It is natural to aspire. India is getting increasingly aspirational," he said.
"Earlier, people had adopted a 'chalta hai' attitude but now they have high expectations from us," Modi said, adding that the 125 crore people of India now feel excitement, hope and expectation.
"If you will see where we stand in comparison to the previous government, I can affirm that we left no stone unturned in doing good for the country on any parameter," he added.
"You all must have seen that the power of your passport has increased. People look at you with pride. India is still is the same. But today we can see a difference. Indian has managed to do this & now people know the power of India," Modi said, comparing his government's achievements with that of his predecessors.
