Country followed mantra of ‘sabka saath, sabka vikas, sabka vishwas’: PM Modi

TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Sunday that providing medical grade oxygen to different states during the second wave of COVID-19 was a challenge but the Indian Air Force, the railways and scores of tanker drivers worked overtime to ensure that it was delivered to those in need on time.

In his monthly ‘Mann ki Baat’ radio address, he also touched upon his government’s seventh anniversary on Sunday and said the nation has followed the mantra of “sabka saath, sabka vikas, sabka vishwas” in this period. There have been many moments of national pride, he said.

Apart from many successes, there were some stern tests as well, he said, referring to the pandemic. The nation fought its first wave with courage, and this too will be defeated, he asserted. Speaking of various natural disasters, the prime minister said more lives were saved compared to the past. He underlined that the Centre and the states are working together to mitigate the sufferings of the people.
