“Respected Saroj Devi ji,” the PM’s letter read.
“Regards! Hope you are healthy, safe and happy. Yesterday I had the opportunity to meet Bhai Neeraj at a banquet organized on the occasion of the visit of the Prime Minister of Jamaica to India,”
“While discussing with him, my happiness increased further when he gave me delicious churma made by your hands,” the letter added.
“After eating this churma today, I could not stop myself from writing a letter to you. Brother Neeraj often talks about this churma with me, but today I got emotional after eating it. This gift of your immense love and affection reminded me of my mother,”
“Mother is the embodiment of strength, affection and dedication,” the PM asserted.
“It is a coincidence that I have received this Prasad from Mother a day before the Navratri festival. I fast during these 9 days of Navratri. In a way, this churma of yours has become my main food before my fast,” the letter continued.
“The way the food prepared by you gives energy to brother Neeraj to win a medal for the country. Similarly, this churma will give me the strength to serve the nation for the next 9 days,” he added.
“On this occasion of Shakti Parv Navratri, I along with you assure the mother power of the country that I will continue to work with more spirit of service to realize the resolve of a developed India,” the letter continued.
“Heartfelt gratitude to you,” the honourable PM signed off.
