NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday slammed the marketing campaign maligning the identify of 'chowkidars' for vested political pursuits by way of some people.
In an interplay with chowkidars through an audio bridge, PM Modi stated "Some people are abusing 'chowkidars', bringing every watchman under cloud. They lack the guts to name me."
Responding to a query from a security guard PM Modi stated, "I want to apologise as some people in last few months for their vested interests have run a disinformation campaign against chowkidars. It is unfortunate that the language of these people has hurt you."
"You must have noticed that these days everywhere it is you who is being discussed, be it TV or social media, be it in India or abroad. Today every Indian is saying 'Main bhi Chowkidar'," the PM stated.
"People across country taking pledge to become watchmen, 'chowkidar' has become synonymous with patriotism and honesty," PM Modi stated.
