Party president JP Nadda will inaugurate the exhibition at BJP headquarter and a similar type of exhibition will be there in other states too,” he said while addressing the media. He said that the party will dedicate the Prime Minister’s birthday to the welfare of the poor in the form of a ‘Seva Pakhwada’. “The celebration will be in three categories. First, Sewa, in which health camps, blood donation camps, vaccinations centres etc. Our workers will be on booths in these camps to help people in getting done their booster dose and health checkups,” he said. “PM Modi’s vision of TB-free India by 2025 will also be included in this. Our leaders and workers will adopt a patient for a year and keep a routine check on their health and need,” Singh added. The party will also carry out a cleanliness drive on the occasion along with planting trees. “Cleanliness drive will be carried out. PM Modi always focuses on cleanliness therefore there will be many cleanliness drives will be taken. Also, we will plant 10 lakh peepal trees at our booths as peepal tree is a great source of oxygen,” he said. Moreover, a large number of people send their wishes to Prime Minister Narendra Modi on his birthday using the NaMo App from where wishes can be sent to PM Modi by recording a video message or a photo that can be directly uploaded on the app. NaMo App has added some special modules this year including a chance to include the entire family in one greeting and ‘Gift of Seva’ which allows users to choose an area where they would like to take a pledge.

The National Logistics Policy will benefit 22 million people
The policy was first introduced in 2020 during the Budget speech by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman.
As per a report by CNBC-TV18, currently, high logistics costs in India bring down the competitiveness of domestic goods in the global market. According to Goyal, the country spends around 13 to 14 per cent of gross domestic product (GDP) on logistics costs.
While countries like Germany and Japan, which are known for their developed logistics infrastructure and systems, spend just around eight to nine per cent of the GDP on logistics costs.
The logistic sector has more than 20 government agencies, 40 Partner Government Agencies (PGA), 37 export promotion councils, 500 certifications, over 10,000 commodities and a $160-billion market size, reports Economic Times.

Glimpse into PM Modi’s previous birthdays
New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi is celebrating his 72nd birthday today, 17 September, 2022. For the Prime Minister, birthday is no special day but another occasion of duty and service – a ‘Kartavya Diwas’.
For PM Narendra Modi nation comes first and his development works, benefitting people of all walks of lives especially those on grassroot level, are taking the country to new heights.
Back in 2016, the Prime Minister had said that when it comes to work, he is a “workaholic”. “My work is my relaxation. I never get tired of working. The opposite tires me,” he had said.
On his 72nd birthday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi today released eight cheetahs that were brought to India’s Madhya Pradesh from Namibia on Saturday morning.
After that the Prime Minister addressed a convention of self-help groups in Madhya Pradesh. He usually celebrates his birthday with his mother in Gujarat but this year was different.
“Normally I meet my mother on my birthday and seek her blessings; today so many mothers of Madhya Pradesh have blessed me,” PM Modi said.

Beneath his hardline image, a ‘soft’ Narendra Modi is at work
Even the thought makes his core support base bristle. It sends his detractors in denial. But beneath the nationally and internationally curated image of a hard, ruthless and majoritarian Narendra Modi exists a truth inconvenient for many.
There exists, quite demonstrably, a soft and inclusive Narendra Modi.
Beyond the spiel and stereotype lie certain facts. Policies and actions testify to a prime minister who does not polarise and instead unsentimentally and without discrimination provides for key markers liberals and socialists value like minorities, backward castes, tribals, unorganised labour and rural homemakers.
