PM Modi promoting eco-friendly products
PM Modi's choice to wear eco-friendly attire is not new. In February, he was seen wearing a sleeveless sky-blue jacket, gifted to him by the Indian Oil Corporation (IOC), which was made using recycled material from plastic bottles. This endorsement of sustainable fashion aligns with Modi's commitment to environmental conservation.
