During the ceremony, PM Modi engaged in a light-hearted moment with Kalambe, advising him to eat properly, noting his thin appearance. The National Creators Award, presented in categories such as storytelling, social change advocacy, environmental sustainability, education, and gaming, aims to recognise excellence and impact while serving as a launchpad for creativity-driven positive change.
Addressing the gathering at the event, PM said, "You are the people who have created a place for yourselves and this is why you are at the Bharat Mandapam. This is the place where the G20 was organised and discussion for creating the future of the world was done."
"Today, you all have gathered here to discuss how to create the future of India...When the times change, when a new era begins, it becomes any country's responsibility to adapt to the same. Today, at Bharat Mandapam, India is fulfilling that very responsibility," he added.
