During his discussion in the Bharat ki Baat, Sabke Sath programme, Modi outlined three objectives of his government — Children must be educated, youths must have jobs and the elderly must have access to medicine.

“People have more expectations from us because they know that we can deliver. People know that when they say something, the government will listen and do it. Days of incremental change are over. Can do justice to the nation when I forget myself," he said.

Prime Minister Modi is ending the first day of his London visit by interacting with Indian diaspora at an event titled 'Bharat Ki Baat, Sabke Saath'. Along with live questions from the audience present there, questions are also being sourced from Facebook, Twitter and the NaMo app.
