PM Modi commends 7-year-old girl’s contribution to PM TB Mukt Bharat Abhiyan

In September last year, President Droupadi Murmu launched the Pradhan Mantri TB Mukt Bharat Abhiyaan to eliminate tuberculosis by 2025. Now, a seven-year-old girl named Nalini Singh from Una in Himachal Pradesh has come forward to support the cause and donated her pocket money. Her thoughtful gesture impressed the state’s Governor, Shiv Pratap Shukla, who felicitated her at an event held in DRDA Hall, Una. Pictures from the event were shared on Twitter and caught the attention of many, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who praised her noble contribution.

Prime Minister Modi quoted a tweet shared by Union Minister Mansukh Mandaviya and wrote, “Good gesture.” The minister shared a few pictures with the caption, “Little Hands, Big Impact!

Your little effort can make a big impact on someone’s life & strengthen our fight for #TBMuktBharat.”
