In his Mann Ki Baat radio broadcast, Modi also said that climate change is a major threat to marine ecosystems and that the litter on beaches is disturbing.
“It becomes our responsibility to make serious and continuous efforts to tackle these challenges,” he said.
In the broadcast, Modi paid tributes to BJP ideologue Deen Dayal Upadhyaya, saying he was a profound thinker and a great son of the country.
Modi also said that 130 crore Indians were filled with pride over the return of cheetahs. He said a task force will monitor them and on the basis of that it will be decided when people can see them.
He said that an important day of ‘Amrit Mahotsav’ is coming on September 28 when the birth anniversary of Bhagat Singh will be celebrated.
“Just before his birth anniversary, as a tribute, an important decision has been taken, it has been decided that the Chandigarh airport will now be named after Shaheed Bhagat Singh,” Modi said.
Talking about India’s progress in para-sports, the PM said that today, India is scaling new heights. “We have witnessed (the progress) in multiple tournaments. There are many people who are working on ground to promote fitness culture among the specially-abled, strengthening their self-confidence,” he said.
The PM also addressed the reports around the return of the cheetahs last week. “People from many corners of the country expressed happiness over the return of Cheetahs; 1.3 cr Indians elated, filled with pride. A task force will monitor Cheetahs, on the basis of which we’ll decide when you can visit the Cheetahs,” he said.
“I request people to share their views on naming of the campaign & Cheetahs. It’ll be great if naming of Cheetahs is in tune with our traditions. Also, suggest how humans should treat animals. Participate in this contest & maybe you could be the 1st one to witness the Cheetahs,” he added.
