During the informal interaction with Narendra Modi, the beneficiaries explained how their lives had improved through the use of LPG cylinders.
The Prime Minister encouraged them to talk on various aspects of their day-to-day life.
In response to their observations, the Prime Minister mentioned the Saubhagya Yojana, which has been launched by the Union Government to provide electricity connections to every home.
He also emphasized the need to end all forms of discrimination against the girl child.
He exhorted the gathering to work towards ensuring cleanliness in their villages.
