Congress committing dacoity on rights of OBCs, SCs, STs: PM
“Wherever it (Congress) can do it, it will try to loot the claims of the SCs, STs and OBCs and give them to others,” said Modi.
In the latest installment of his radio show ‘Mann Ki Baat,’ Prime Minister Narendra Modi reminisced about how Indian cinema illuminated the country with international accolades. Applauding India’s dual Oscar victories in 2023, PM Modi stated, “Friends, when ‘Naatu Naatu’ clinched the Oscar, the entire nation celebrated. Who wouldn’t be delighted upon learning about the recognition bestowed upon ‘The Elephant Whisperers’? Through these achievements, the world witnessed India’s creativity and comprehended our deep connection with the environment.”
In 2023, the ‘Naatu Naatu’ song from SS Rajamouli’s film ‘RRR’ etched history at the Oscars by winning Best Original Song. Prior to its Oscar triumph in 2023, the song had already secured accolades on the global stage. In January, ‘Naatu Naatu’ earned the Golden Globes in the ‘Best Original Song’ category.
