Today is a very emotional day for me personally

I have spent a large part of my life with tribal brothers and sisters and their children. I have been a witness to the needs and life. So today is a very emotional day for me personally. A separate ministry was formed by Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ji. I pay homage to Atal Ji. I do."
Museum will become a living establishment of tribal freedom fighters
He said that he had spent his last days fighting for the independence of India in this jail in Ranchi. I am happy that today the first tribal museum in Jharkhand, rich in tribal culture, came into existence. I congratulate the tribal society of the whole country on this museum. This museum will become a living establishment of tribal freedom fighters.
Museums will not only make the new generation of the country familiar
Narendra Modi said that besides this, work is going on at a fast pace on nine more such museums in different states of the country. These museums will not only make the new generation of the country familiar with the pride of tribal history, but it will also increase tourism. Friends, many of our tribal freedom fighters had sacrificed their lives by Lord Birsa Munda.
