Prime Minister Narendra Modi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday praised Indian-origin cricketers playing in foreign teams and emphasised the significance of 'Bhartiyata' and noted that wherever Indians travel, they maintain a strong connection to their roots in their 'matrabhoomi' (motherland) while also contributing to the development of their 'karmabhoomi' (place of duty).
He highlighted the importance of sports in everyone's life, stressing that "One who plays, blooms", adding that sports "unite us".
Addressing the 131st episode of his monthly radio programme, 'Mann Ki Baat', PM Modi said, "Nowadays, you must be watching T20 World Cup matches. I am sure that while watching a match, you must be eyeing a particular player. The jersey may belong to another country, but on hearing their name, you realise that he is from our country. The moment gives you a slight happiness because the player is of indian origin and is playing for the country where his family settled."
