Learn what he said during the conversation with Amar Ujala…
Question- How are you feeling, when you have got such a big responsibility?
answer- This is a big deal for me. Earlier I worked for Madhubani district in the year 2017-18. I have an idea of the way I worked when the Election Commission made me the brand ambassador. At that time there was only one district, but now we have to work for the whole state. At that time, she used to make people aware by going to all the subdivisions. She used to request the people that all of you should exercise your franchise.
It happens that the elders of the house who vote for a particular party or a particular candidate, the women of that house also vote for the same. Earlier, I thought that it would happen like this, but when I worked as the brand ambassador of the Election Commission in Madhubani, I realized that this thinking should also be changed. Because the right to vote is one’s own and no one else’s. This is my right, I will definitely make people aware that voting is their own, they should think for themselves that whom we should make as our public representative, who is capable of developing our society and who can develop our healthy society.
Question- According to age, your responsibility is bigger than age, so how do you see it?
answer- The meaning of having a brand ambassador associated with the name of big people, I used to ask my father what a brand ambassador is. So Papa used to tell that the meaning of brand ambassador is to fulfill the responsibilities towards those respective companies. His image has to be preserved. I had heard this word in the first words, but it will be very encouraging to play it well, something will be learned.
Question- You are also the brand ambassador of Bihar State Khadi Village Industries Board, so what has to be done for Khadi Village Industries and what are you doing in this?
answer- Till now we have seen that the elder members of the family like father, grandfather etc. wear khadi kurtas. We have put Khadi in a separate category, whereas now Khadi is being expanded continuously with the passage of time. People of all age groups have now started wearing Khadi and are also liking it. I myself like to wear saree and wear it too. I want people not to be limited to that, because even people of our age should wear Khadi.
I have been to Patna many times as I am the ambassador of Khadi as well as Bihar handicrafts. Many women and men from small villages are engaged in this work, so I think that what should be done to increase their income, so that along with the development of handicrafts, their employment also gets a new dimension and the name of Bihar Proceeded.
