Shah listened to the 100th episode of "Mann ki Baat" in Mumbai. The Union Home minister said "Mann ki Baat" is not just a radio programme but a movement for social change for the better.

He also said the prime minister's words to achievers have inspired the young generation to take charge of the nation's destiny and build a better future for all.

On April 26, Shah had said the beauty of "Mann ki Baat" is that a political person like Narendra Modi did not mention a single political issue in its 99 episodes.
