Obama, Modi to reach masses on radio
Print Edition
THE leaders of the US and India will next week take to India’s radio airwaves, the main source of news and information for many in the country, to get their message out.
US President Barack Obama, who will be the chief guest at New Delhi’s showpiece Republic Day parade on January 26, will join Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on a special edition of the latter’s radio program next Tuesday. Listeners have been asked to pre-submit questions by Sunday to the leaders on the program “Mann Ki Baat,” or “Talking from the Heart.”
“This month’s ‘Mann Ki Baat’ episode will be a special one, where our Republic Day guest @BarackObama & I will share our thoughts together,” Modi tweeted yesterday. Modi makes radio speeches at least every month to communicate with two-thirds of India’s 1.2 billion people who regularly listen to the radio. He had talked about a cleanliness drive, tax evasion, and drug abuse among others on his show. Obama’s decision to appear on the show during his visit is a sign of the bond the two leaders share.
