Delhi CM urges citizens to embrace patriotism by performing civic duties
Last Updated: New Delhi, Aug 14 (PTI) Performing one's civic duties and small gestures like avoiding littering and wearing helmet for safety are also forms of patriotism, Chief Minister Rekha Gupta said on Thursday. As part of a road safety awareness campaign organised by the Delhi government, Gupta, along with MP Bansuri Swaraj, Delhi Transport Minister Pankaj Singh and Chief Secretary Dharmendra participated in a helmet-wearing drive at Connaught Place. 'On the eve of Independence Day, let us pledge to follow road safety and maintain cleanliness in our city," Gupta said. Urging the youngsters to follow road safety measures, the chief minister said you are the ones who will take the country forward, so wear helmets and fasten the straps properly. 'I always say that we may never have a chance to face the bullets and show our patriotism like our brave soldiers do but we can show it through small gestures. Maintaining cleanliness, helping people, following traffic and road safety rules like wearing helmets are also expressions of patriotism and love for the country," she said. Swaraj also encouraged the youngsters to wear helmet by suggesting that they can customise it the way they do it with other fashion accessories. Transport Minister Pankaj Singh said Delhi's safety was in the hands of its citizens. 'Let us promise ourselves that we will not do anything to compromise our safety and ensure that our friends and family also follow safety rules," he added.

For PM Modi, 5-Yr-Old Bengaluru Girl's Adorable Handwritten Note: ‘Lots Of Traffic...Please Help'
Last Updated: A five-year-old Bengaluru girl's handwritten plea to PM Modi about traffic and bad roads has gone viral. A 5-year-old girl from Bengaluru wrote a heartfelt letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi. What was in the letter? She requested PM Modi to help find a solution for the city's notorious traffic congestion and poor road conditions. In the most innocent way, the little girl, Arya, explained how the city's heavy traffic often causes her to be late for school. The little girl's father, Abhiroop Chatterjee, posted a picture of the letter on X (formerly Twitter). It read, 'PM is visiting Bangalore. My 5-year-old girl sees it as her chance to finally fix traffic." Dated August 10, the short letter read: 'Narendra Modi ji, there is lots of traffic. We get late to school and office. The road is very bad. Please help." Arya signed it with her name, age, and city, and even added cute drawings of a heart, a flower, and a few shapes. Check the post here: The Viral Letter The heartwarming post quickly caught people's attention, racking up over 6 lakh views on X. Many praised the little girl's effort, while others related strongly to her complaint about Bengaluru's traffic. The issue she raised mirrors the daily frustration of countless residents, especially office-goers and parents, who spend hours stuck in jams. Arya's neat handwriting and perfect spelling also impressed several social media users. A comment read, 'I must congratulate you, sir, on your brilliant daughter writing in cursive English with perfect spelling and grammar before starting LKG. Next Google CEO?" Another user said, 'I hope he meets your daughter and her wish comes true." Some replies reflected the city's ongoing road woes. A person commented, 'I literally got almost killed because of the roads from Koramangala to Indiranagar. I pay Rs 3 lakh as income tax, and all I get are roads like the highway to hell." Others expressed their admiration for the innocence behind Arya's appeal, calling it 'adorable" and 'heart-melting." A Message That Resonates While Arya's request was simple, it struck a chord with many who have been dealing with Bengaluru's traffic mess for years.
