TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Prime Minister Narendra Modi has said Governors can become catalytic agents for change in the society while upholding the sanctity of the Constitution.
Addressing a conference of Governors at Rashtrapati Bhawan here, he mentioned the target of ‘New India’ by 2022 and emphasized that this can be achieved only by making it a people’s movement, a PMO statement said.
