The monthly radio programme ‘Mann Ki Baat’ by Prime Minister Narendra Modi will be broadcast at 11.30 a.m. on the entire network of All India Radio and Doordarshan, as well as on AIR News and the AIR mobile app.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi will address the nation today in the first episode of his monthly radio show ‘Mann Ki Baat’ for the year. The 85th episode of ‘Mann Ki Baat,’ which airs on the last Sunday of each month, will be broadcast at 11.30 a.m. on the entire network of All India Radio and Doordarshan, as well as on AIR News and the AIR mobile app.


“This month’s Mann Ki Baat, which will take place on the 30th, will begin at 11:30 a.m. after observing Gandhi Ji’s Punya Tithi remembrances,” said the Prime Minister’s Office last week.

JP Nadda, the chief of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), had directed party workers to make arrangements at the booth level to ensure maximum participation in the Prime Minister’s ‘Mann Ki Baat’ programme. The BJP has made special arrangements for people to hear his speech in various locations across the country.

The speech comes on the anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi’s death, which is observed as Martyrs Day to honour his contribution to the country’s freedom.


The Prime Minister had invited citizens to share their thoughts and ideas for this month’s Mann ki Baat episode.

“The first #MannKiBaat of 2022 will take place on the 30th of this month.” I’m sure you have many inspiring life stories and topics to share. Share them on Twitter @mygovindia or the NaMo App. “Please record your message by dialling 1800-11-7800,” Prime Minister Modi said in a tweet.

PM Modi spoke on several topics, including coronavirus disease and the Swachh Bharat initiative, in the most recent Mann ki Baat on December 26. He also spoke about Kaavi, a type of painting that is mostly found in Goa and coastal Maharashtra, and urged people to work to preserve such ancient forms in the country.

On October 3, 2014, the first episode of the show aired.
