भारत दुनिया का तीसरा ऐसा देश है, जहां सबसे ज्यादा textile waste निकलता है। यानि चुनौती हमारे सामने भी बहुत बड़ी है। लेकिन मुझे खुशी है कि हमारे देश में इस चुनौती से निपटने के लिए कई सराहनीय प्रयास किये जा रहे हैं।

PM on ‘Yoga Day 2025’
“There are now less than 100 days left for the Yoga Day. The theme of Yoga Day 2025 has been kept as ‘Yoga for One Earth One Health’, that is, we wish to make the whole world healthy through yoga,” PM Modi added.
“Curiosity about yoga and traditional medicine is increasing all over the world. A large number of youth are adopting Yoga and Ayurveda considering it as an excellent medium of wellness,” PM added.
Para Sports becoming ‘famous’: PM Modi
“In the Khelo India Para Games held a few days ago, the players once again surprised everyone with their dedication and talent. This time more players participated in these games than before. This shows how popular Para Sports is becoming. I congratulate all the players who participated in the Khelo India Para Games for their great efforts,” PM added.
PM Modi on ‘water conservation’
PM added, “By conserving raindrops, we can save a lot of water from getting wasted. In the last few years, under this campaign, unprecedented work has been done in many parts of the country for water conservation. Let me give you an interesting statistic. In the last 7-8 years, 11 billion cubic meters and more than that, water has been conserved through newly constructed tanks, ponds and other water recharge structures.”
“Our indigenous games are now becoming a part of popular culture. You all must know the famous rapper ‘Hanumankind’. Nowadays, his new song “Run It Up” is becoming quite famous. It includes our traditional Martial Arts like Kalaripayadu, Gatka and Thang-Ta,” PM said in Mann Ki Baat.
PM Modi on start-ups
“India is the third country in the world where the maximum textile waste is generated. This means that we also face a huge challenge. But I am happy that many commendable efforts are being made in our country to deal with this challenge. Many Indian start-ups have started working on textile recovery facilities. There are many teams who are also working for the empowerment of our brothers and sisters who are waste pickers,” he added.
कुछ ही दिन पहले सम्पन्न हुए Khelo India Para Games में एक बार फिर खिलाड़ियों ने अपनी लगन और प्रतिभा से सबको हैरान कर दिया।
इस बार पहले से ज्यादा खिलाड़ियों ने इन खेलों में हिस्सा लिया। इससे पता चलता है कि Para Sports कितना Popular हो रहा है।
