When there is dialogue, there is a solution, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said

Pointing out that a well-informed, better-informed society should be the goal for all, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday exhorted everybody to work together for this.

He was speaking via video conferencing to inaugurate the Agradoot group of publications' Golden Jubilee festivities. Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma was also present at the event.

When there is dialogue, there is a solution, he noted, adding that it was through dialogue that possibilities expand. "Therefore, along with the flow of knowledge in Indian democracy, the flow of information is also flowing continuously," Prime Minister Modi said.

Prime Minister Modi underlined the sterling contribution of Indian language journalism to Indian tradition, culture, freedom struggle and the development journey. Assam has played a key role in the development of language journalism in India as the state has been a very vibrant place from the point of view of journalism, he pointed out.

Prime Minister Modi praised Dainik Agradoot for being a "strong voice of the Northeast in the Assamese language" and for preserving the ideals of harmony and togetherness via journalism.

The Prime Minister continued by discussing the situation that Assam has recently been dealing with because of floods. He went on to assure us that CM Sarma and his team are working extremely hard day and night to provide relief and rescue.

PM Modi also discussed the significance of the new National Education Policy (NEP) by highlighting the dilemma of how intellectual space can continue to be restricted to a small number of speakers of a single language.

He maintained that even now, people around the nation and the world recognize the constructive role that our media has played in initiatives like the Swachh Bharat Mission.
