Ace badminton player PV Sindhu talks about how PM Modi’s appreciation inspires her

During the National Executive meeting of the Bharatiya Janata Party in Patna, an incident left a lasting impression on the now BJP President Shri Nitin Nabin Ji and offered a quiet yet powerful lesson in leadership.

Senior leaders from across the country were arriving in Patna for a major rally. Nitin Nabin Ji was part of the team responsible for receiving leaders at the airport and escorting them according to protocol. As leaders arrived, they followed the standard process and proceeded directly to their vehicles.

When PM Modi arrived, he was welcomed and requested to move towards the car. Before doing so, he paused and asked whether the karyakartas were waiting outside. On being informed that many karyakartas were standing there, he immediately said that he would like to meet them first.

Instead of sitting in the vehicle, the PM chose to walk on foot. As the car followed behind, he personally greeted the workers, accepted garlands with his own hands, folded his hands in respect and acknowledged each karyakarta present. Only after meeting everyone did he proceed to his vehicle and depart.

Though the conference itself was brief, the gesture left a deep and lasting impact. PM Modi could have easily remained in the car and waved, but he chose to walk alongside the workers and personally honour them. This moment reflected his sensitivity and his belief that every worker, regardless of position, deserves respect.

Nitin Nabin Ji explains that this incident taught him the true meaning of leadership. For Narendra Modi Ji, leadership is rooted in humility, emotional connection and constant engagement with the grassroots. Respect for workers and open communication are not symbolic acts, but core values of all the karyakartas, leaders and the entire Party.

This ethos, where karyakartas are treated with dignity and warmth, defines the BJP’s organisational culture. It is this tradition that strengthens the Party’s roots and prepares ordinary people to shoulder national responsibilities.

भारतीय जनता पार्टी एक ऐसा संगठन है जो कार्यकर्ता को सबसे आगे रखता है। सामान्य कार्यकर्ताओं को भी देश के नेतृत्व के लिए तैयार करना इसकी संगठनात्मक परंपरा रही है।

आज नितिन नवीन जी का राष्ट्रीय दायित्व संभालना इसी संस्कार का सशक्त प्रमाण है।@NitinNabin जी बताते हैं कि नरेंद्र… pic.twitter.com/UbYJ7YlaTF
