Fight against obesity: PM Modi invites 10 prominent personalities to spread awareness

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has invited ten prominent personalities from various fields to join a national movement aimed at raising awareness about obesity and promoting healthier lifestyles. This initiative aligns with the Fit India Movement, launched to encourage citizens to adopt fitness as a key part of daily life.

The individuals nominated include Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, businessman Anand Mahindra, actor-turned-politician Dinesh Lal Yadav (Nirahua), Olympic medalists Manu Bhaker and Mirabai Chanu, actors Mohanlal and R. Madhavan, singer Shreya Ghoshal, philanthropist and Rajya Rajya Sabha MP Sudha Murthy, and Infosys co-founder Nandan Nilekani. Each nominee has been encouraged to further nominate ten individuals, amplifying the campaign’s reach across diverse communities.

In a post on X, Prime Minister Modi said, “As mentioned in yesterday’s Mann Ki Baat, I would like to nominate the following people to help strengthen the fight against obesity and spread awareness on reducing edible oil consumption in food. I also request them to nominate ten people each so that our movement gets bigger! Collectively, let us make India fitter and healthier.”

The Prime Minister stressed that obesity is linked to several health complications, including heart disease, diabetes, and hypertension. However, he assured that small lifestyle changes, such as reducing excessive oil consumption, can significantly mitigate these risks.

“Using less oil in food and dealing with obesity is not just a personal choice but also our responsibility towards the family. Excessive use of oil in food can cause many diseases like heart disease, diabetes, and hypertension,” PM Modi said, urging citizens to embrace healthier eating habits.

To further strengthen the initiative, the Prime Minister invited Olympic gold medalist Neeraj Chopra, boxer Nikhat Zareen, and renowned cardiologist Dr. Devi Shetty to share their insights on combating obesity in future episodes of Mann Ki Baat.

The campaign aims to inspire individuals and communities to adopt healthier food habits, reinforcing the message that small dietary adjustments can lead to a fitter and disease-free future. With the involvement of influential figures and the power of collective action, the initiative aspires to create a lasting impact on the nation’s health.
