"Aaj hum tumko joota pehna rahe hai par baad mai aaisa kuch karna nhi, kahbhi nahi," PM Modi said
In a touching moment during his visit to Haryana on Monday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi gifted a pair of shoes to Rampal Kashyap, a man from Kaithal who had walked barefoot for 14 years after vowing not to wear footwear until Modi became the Prime Minister and met him.
The Prime Minister at a public meeting in Yamunanagar personally made Kashyap wear the shoes. In a brief conversation, the Prime Minister gently urged him not to take such vows in the future.
“Aaj hum tumko joota pehna rahe hai par baad mai aaisa kuch karna nhi, kahbhi nahi. (I am making you wear shoes, but do not do it again). You should work, why you have done such a thing..giving yourself pain,” PM Modi said.
Rampal Kashyap expressed happiness at finally meeting the Prime Minister and having his vow fulfilled.
PM Modi later shared a video of the meeting on X writing, “At today’s public meeting in Yamunanagar, I met Shri Rampal Kashyap Ji from Kaithal. He had taken a vow 14 years ago- that he will only wear footwear after I became PM and he got to meet me. I am humbled by people like Rampal Ji and also accept their affection but I want to request everyone who takes up such vows – I cherish your love…please focus on something that is linked to social work and nation building!”
