On this Special Report, the focus is on Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s outreach to Tamil Nadu on the occasion of Pongal. The Prime Minister lauded the hard work of farmers and described the festival as a ‘shining example of Tamil tradition’ while noting that Tamil is home to the oldest language in the world. PM Modi is scheduled to participate in Pongal celebrations at the residence of Union Minister L Murugan in the national capital. The programme discusses the BJP’s efforts to strengthen its cultural and political connect with Southern India, specifically Tamil Nadu, ahead of upcoming elections. Journalists Aishwarya and Maria Shakeel analyze the significance of the Prime Minister’s personalized letters written in regional languages like Tamil and Assamese to mark harvest festivals across India. The discussion highlights the BJP’s strategy to counter the perception of being a North Indian party by embracing local traditions and addressing issues of governance and corruption in the state.
