Although a large number of questions sent to mygov.in, a discussion forum floated by the government, revolved around the PM’s visit to Pakistan, Modi did not bring it up.
Among the few ideas that the PM picked up from inputs received from the masses was one on keeping places of tourist interest clean through the Swachh Bharat project. “As you know, I use technology a lot. And I do keep an eye on mygov.in…. I agree Swachh Bharat should be a focus area, especially in tourist destinations.” To continue the initiative, Modi wants people of this country to clean up statues of national leaders across the country on January 26.
While pointing out the action plan for Start-Up India, Stand Up India will be unveiled on January 16, Modi said Indian Institues of Technology and other universities will be connected live for the event. Modi wants India to be the start-up capital of the world.
Asking people to connect with him through the Narendra Modi app and viamygov.in, the PM sought citizens’ views on anything from Swachh Bharat to inspirational examples of charity and bravery; ideas for the national youth festival at Raipur on Swami Vivekananda’s birth anniversary to thoughts on duty and responsibility. “Why should we not discuss duties and responsibilities in schools and colleges and other places on Republic Day?”
