A free press makes a stronger democracy: PM Modi

On World Press Freedom Day, PM Narendra Modi said, “A free press makes a stronger democracy! Today on WorldPressFreedomDay, let us reaffirm our commitment towards steadfastly supporting a free press. It is the multiplicity of ideas and human expression that makes us more vibrant as a society.

I applaud all those who have been working tirelessly to uphold freedom of press. It is due to these countless women and men that the spirit of a free press is significantly enhanced.

I would once again like to appreciate the proactive role of everyone on social media for their commendable work towards safeguarding the freedom of press and expression."

“ಬೆಂಗಳೂರಿನಿಂದ ಕನ್ಯಾಕುಮಾರಿಯವರೆಗೆ ಸೈಕಲ್ ಸವಾರಿ ಕೈಗೊಂಡ ಶ್ರೀ ಎಸ್. ಸುರೇಶ್ ಕುಮಾರ್ ಅವರ ಸಾಧನೆ ಶ್ಲಾಘನೀಯ ಮತ್ತು ಸ್ಫೂರ್ತಿದಾಯಕವಾಗಿದೆ. ಆರೋಗ್ಯದ ಹಿನ್ನಡೆಗಳನ್ನು ಮೆಟ್ಟಿ ನಿಂತು ಅವರು ಈ ಸಾಧನೆ ಮಾಡಿರುವುದು ಅವರ ದೃಢ ನಿರ್ಧಾರ ಮತ್ತು ಅಚಲ ಮನೋಭಾವವನ್ನು ಎತ್ತಿ ತೋರಿಸುತ್ತದೆ. ಇದು ಫಿಟ್ನೆಸ್ ಕುರಿತು ಪ್ರಮುಖ ಸಂದೇಶವನ್ನೂ ನೀಡುತ್ತದೆ.

ಅವರೊಂದಿಗೆ ಮಾತನಾಡಿ, ಅವರ ಈ ಪ್ರಯತ್ನಕ್ಕೆ ಅಭಿನಂದನೆ ಸಲ್ಲಿಸಿದೆ.
