In the recent installment of 'Mann Ki Baat,' Prime Minister Narendra Modi praised Uttar Pradesh's young stars—sports and entrepreneurship. Special mention was made for Kadir Khan (Bareilly), Sheikh Zeeshan (Varanasi), and Tushar Chaudhary (Bijnor), who made record-breaking moments at the Khelo India Youth Games 2025 in Bihar. Their grit and success, in the PM's opinion, are an inspiration for youth all across the country.
The PM also welcomed the state's rising number of "honeypreneurs," citing the success of the 'Madhumaya Abhiyan' and the almost 60% rise in honey production, driving health, self-reliance, and prosperity to rural UP. Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath endorsed the PM's sentiments, extending congratulations to the players and entrepreneurs on their backbreaking toil and discipline, and the contribution of such efforts towards a greater, self-reliant India.
Citizens and rulers from all across the country tuned in as the PM's address underscored how stories of sporting grit and rural innovation are shaping a new story for Uttar Pradesh and India.
