In a heartfelt gesture during a public meeting in Kerala, Prime Minister Narendra Modi noticed a child holding up his hand-made picture in the crowd. Addressing the gathering in Thiruvananthapuram, PM Modi gently asked the child to lower his hands, expressing concern that he might get tired. He then instructed SPG personnel to collect the artwork, requesting the young boy to write his name and address on it.
The Prime Minister added that he would personally write a letter to the child. In another warm moment, PM Modi also noticed a woman in the crowd who wished to present something to him and directed his security team to receive her gift as well.
"I have been seeing a child standing for a long time with his hands up in the air. You will get tired. Bring me the picture, write your address on the back, I will write to you. I urge the SPG to bring me this child's love," PM Modi said.
“It seems that this madam also wants to give something. She has probably made a big book,” he added.
