* This is the 36th episode of Mann Ki Baat, which completes 3 years with this episode.

* Mann ki Baat has become a unique opportunity to connect with the entire country. It has become a platform where people from across the nation share constructive views, express their opinions and concerns.

* It has also become a platform to showcase the strenghts of India.

* I've tried to keep these talks (in Mann ki Baat) apart from politics. You, the people, are at the centre of Mann ki Baat.

* As a result of Mann ki Baat, the government has become more sensitive.

* I've witnessed that every Indian wants to do something for the development of society and country.

* I'm delighted to see the support towards Swachhata Hi Seva movement. People are actively contributing to a Swachh Bharat

* Role of media in furthering the cause of Swachhata has been vital. Through their efforts they've brought about a positive change.

* Sardar Patel had unified the entire country. We too should follow his example and further the mantra of unity.

* Unity in diversity is the strength of India. We're proud of the diversity in our country, and I urge everyone, particularly the youth to personally experience this.

* I urge you to travel around India, not merely as a visitor but also like a student and make efforts to assimilate, understand and adapt.

* Big opportunity for younger generation between Navratri festivities and Diwali FIFA under- 17 world cup being organized in our country.

* I congratulate 18-year-old Bilal Dar, who has been made a brand ambassador for cleanliness by the Srinagar Municipal Corporation. He cleaned more than 12000 kgs of garbage from the Dal Lake in a year.

* Lt Swati Mahadik and Lt Nidhi Dubey have been commissioned in the Indian Army after their husbands were martyred in the forces. I congratulate the two officers for being an inspiration for all.
