The 100th episode of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Mann ki Baat radio program was broadcasted on Sunday. Since 2014, he has used the program to speak to Indians, the Indian diaspora, and people of the Indian heritage abroad to connect with them, share his ideas, and talk about several aspects of the country and his government. The Mann ki Baat has emerged as a program used by Modi as a way to highlight India's soft power, which has been seen in episodes featuring the then-US President Barack Obama, the episode on Nepal earthquake, and frequent mentions on Indian traditions followed abroad.
