The episode is crucial in many respects, primarily because it is the first one of the year. The show, however, had to be cleared by the Election Commission of India in view of the upcoming assembly elections in five key states. The EC gave clearance to the Prime Minister on Saturday but on the condition that the subject of the election would not be broached. Clarifying the point, the EC informed the Information & Broadcasting Ministry, that there should be nothing in the address “that might act as inducement to voters.” (ALSO READ: PM Modi to share his thoughts in 28th edition of ‘Mann Ki Baat’)...

We have to win this war against corruption and black money...... There is no question of stopping or going back in this fight.”....
