In the last episode of ‘Mann Ki Baat’, PM Modi had pitched for products manufactured in the country. He had urged people to prepare a list; whatever items they use throughout the day, analyze them, think of things manufactured abroad that have permeated into their lives unknowingly – “Let us find out their substitute”, PM Modi had said emphasizing on his ‘vocal for local’ call.

The first-ever Mann Ki Baat episode aired on October 3, 2014, on the festival of Vijayadashami (Dussehra) and the day after Mahatma Gandhi’s 145th birth anniversary.
