| PM Modi pays tributes to Birsa Munda | | | NEW DELHI, Nov 15: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday hailed tribal icon Birsa Munda on his birth anniversary and said he sacrificed everything to protect the honour and glory of the motherland.

Modi also shared a video and audio montage on his tributes to Munda on various occasions.
Prime Minister Modi will visit Bihar’s Jamui to commemorate Janjatiya Gaurav Divas, marking the commencement of the 150th birth anniversary celebration of the tribal icon.
Modi also greeted people on Jharkhand’s foundation day.
“Best wishes to all our brothers and sisters of Jharkhand on the foundation day of the state. This land, irrigated by the struggle and sacrifice of the tribal society, has always made the country proud. I wish that this state, full of natural resources, moves forward at a fast pace on the path of progress,” Modi said on X.
The state of Jharkhand officially came into being on Munda’s birth anniversary in 2000. |
