Unbelievable devotion! Haryana man walks barefoot for 14 years waiting to meet PM Modi

Published By : Admin | April 14, 2025 | 18:04 IST

During a public meeting in Yamunanagar today, Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi met Shri Rampal Kashyap from Kaithal, Haryana. Fourteen years ago, Shri Kashyap had taken a vow – that he would not wear footwear until Narendra Modi became Prime Minister and he met him personally.

Responding humbly, Prime Minister Modi expressed deep gratitude for such unwavering affection. However, he also made an appeal to citizens who take such vows. "I am humbled by people like Rampal Ji and also accept their affection but I want to request everyone who takes up such vows - I cherish your love...please focus on something that is linked to social work and nation building," the Prime Minister said.
