New Delhi, Feb 27 (ANI): With Holi and Shivratri festivals approaching, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on February 27 urged the people to support the 'Vocal for Local' campaign. Addressing the 86th episode of the monthly radio programme, 'Mann Ki Baat', PM Modi said, "Many festivals are lined up in the coming month of March. Shivratri is one of them. A few days later, we will all start preparing for Holi, which is a festival that unites us all." "My dear countrymen, many festivals are lined up in the coming month of March, beginning with Shivratri and later we will all start preparing for Holi. Holi is a festival that unites us all. In this festival, all differences between near-dear ones and strangers, big and small, rancour and envy disappear. That is why it is said that the colours of love and harmony are thicker than the colours of Holi," he added.
