Ahead of the upcoming Lok Sabha elections, Prime Minister Narendra Modi couldn’t resist making a playful remark at the Opposition during an event on Friday honoring digital content creators from various fields.
Malhar Kalambe, the recipient of the first-ever National Creators Award in the ‘Swachhta Ambassador’ category, expressed his willingness to collaborate with the PM in the ‘safai abhiyan’ (cleanliness campaign).
“…Har prakaar ki safai mein kaam aa sakta hai, iss chunaav mein bhi safai hone wali hai (In this election too, there is going to be a clean sweep),” the PM told Kalambe, eliciting applause from the audience at the Bharat Mandapam venue in the National Capital.
PM Modi also shared a light-hearted moment with Kalambe, advising him to eat properly as he looks very thin.
The PM was presenting the first-ever National Creators Award across 20 categories. This initiative aims to recognize excellence and impact across various domains, including storytelling, social change advocacy, environmental sustainability, education, and gaming, among others. The award serves as a platform to leverage creativity for driving positive change.
