At a breakfast meeting with 45 NDA MPs, Prime Minister Narendra Modi advised them to maintain dignity in public discourse and avoid making vulgar remarks on television. He also urged them to engage actively on social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram and X, and to interact with youth, promote government welfare schemes and encourage young people to take up sports.
The meeting, named 'Mangal Milan', is a rebranded version of the weekly NDA parliamentary party strategy session. It was attended by MPs from alliance partners, including rebel factions of Uddhav Thackeray's Shiv Sena and Mamata Banerjee's Trinamool Congress. Modi told the MPs to follow the party line and present their views calmly on every issue.
