Forty-six year old C. Mohan’s phone has been ringing continuously ever since Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday mentioned about him in his ‘Mann ki Baat’ radio programme.
“I have lost count of the number of calls I have received. It could be over 250 calls,” Mohan told IANS.
During his Mann ki Baat programme, Modi said Mohan, who owns a salon in Madurai, had spent his entire savings to help people in distress during the Covid-19 lockdown.
“Shri Mohan ji runs a salon in Madurai. Through sheer hard work, he had saved five lakh rupees for his daughter’s education. But he spent the entire amount in the service of the needy and the underprivileged in these difficult times,” Modi had said on Sunday.
According to Mohan, he had saved the amount for his daughter M. Nethra’s education. She is now in eighth standard.
