You can now express your opinion on the Central government’s performance and decisions in Marathi. The Prime Minister’s Office has included Marathi as an optional regional language for Narendra Modi app, the official mobile phone application of the Prime Minister. He then took the matter up with the PMO, asking it to incorporate Marathi in the app, which was launched in 2015 and posted updates on Modi’s day-to-day activities. Inclusion of Marathi has taken the total number of Indian languages available on the app to nine. “I am happy that Marathi was added to the regional language option in the ‘Narendra Modi’ app just a day before Gudi Padwa, the Maharashtrian new year,” said Chitre.
