Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday urged the creators of the country to participate in ‘Create in India’ challenge, which is conducted by the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, saying that “the nature of jobs is changing and new sectors are emerging” in the current times.
Addressing the 114th episode of the “Mann Ki Baat” radio program, PM Modi said, “In order to promote your talent and creativity, the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, Government of India, has started 25 challenges under the theme, ‘Create in India’. You will surely find these challenges interesting. Some challenges even focus on music, education and even on anti-piracy. There are many professional organisations associated with this objective and are providing full support to these challenges. In order to participate, you can log in to wavesindia.org. I specially urge the creators in the country to ensure participation and bring their creativity to the fore.”
Highlighting about the change in nature of jobs, the PM further said, “Friends, in these changing times, the nature of jobs is changing and new sectors are emerging… Such as gaming, animation, reel making, film making or poster making. If you can perform well in any of these skills… your talent can get a very big platform… if you are a part of a band or working for a community radio, then there is also a huge opportunity for you.”
The Union Minister for Information and Broadcasting, Ashwini Vaishnaw, launched 25 challenges under the ‘ Create in India Challenge–Season 1’ for the World Audio Visual and Entertainment Summit ( WAVES) on Thursday.
‘Create in India Challenge – Season 1’Organised by leading industry associations and organisations, these challenges cover a range of disciplines, including animation, filmmaking, gaming, music and visual arts. These challenges are being held before the main event.
Emphasising ‘Vocal for Local’, Prime Minister Modi asked the countrymen to buy ‘Made in India’ products ahead of the festive season.
“Friends, in this festive season you can once again reiterate your old resolves. Anything you buy, should necessarily be ‘Made in India’… Anything you gift that too should be Made In India. Merely buying earthen lamps is not ‘Vocal for Local’. You should promote local products made in your area more and more. Any such product, that has been made with the sweat of an Indian artisan, that is made on Indian soil, is our pride – we always have to lend glory to this pride,” PM Modi added.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi also thanked the listeners of the program for being the “real anchors,” as the program is set to complete ten years on October 3.
On 114th episode of ‘Mann Ki Baat’ on Sunday, PM Modi said, “The listeners of Mann Ki Baat are the real anchors of this program. A commonly held belief has become so ingrained that as long as there are no spicy or negative conversations, it does not receive much attention. But Mann Ki Baat has proved that how hungry the people of the country are, for positive information. People like positive stories, inspiring examples, and encouraging stories very much”. (ANI)
