I am not thinking about anything else at this moment.” The PM advised, “Stay in the present and work for a better future for the country. He said I sleep only 3.5 hours but always do yoga, which helps me to work properly. You all should lead a healthy lifestyle and do yoga daily.”
PM said use MP letterhead for proper use for public welfare.
