Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday wrote a letter to a school girl named Akanksha, who brought a sketch of him to a rally which was organized as part of the BJP's electoral campaign in Chattisgarh.
Thanking the girl for making the sketch, Modi in his letter, said that "the next 25 years are going to be important for young friends, especially daughters like you, who will provide a new direction to the country's future while fulfilling their dreams."
After the rally, the prime minister asked his team to collect the drawing along with girl's address so he could respond.
