We are also working with the mantra of 'preference for the underprivileged'. That is why today the poor are getting free ration and free treatment.

The biggest inspiration behind this is the power of our society which belongs to crores of people of the country," the prime minister said.PM Modi said that in every period in the country, such a power emerges from within the society which has shown the direction to everyone.
