“You should become a part of this movement and unfurl the national flag atop your home,” PM Modi urged the people of the country
The Prime Minister also confirmed that an interesting endeavour called the ‘Azadi Ki Railgadi Aur Railway Station’ will be rolling out soon. The objective of this initiative is to make people aware of the historic role of the Indian Railways in the freedom struggle, he added.
