Came to receive, not to bless: President Ram Nath Kovind reached the stage after landing at Jhinjhak station. Where he said that he had been trying to come for a long time. Jhinjhak from Paraunkh, reached Rashtrapati Bhavan via Kanpur, Patna. Although DM Saheb was saying that I have come to give blessings, but in reality I have come to seek blessings.
President shared memories: The President said that the streets of Jhinjhak, the stations are remembered. Used to wait for the train here for hours. When I used to go from Paraunkh via Khanpur, there was a sweet shop in Jhinjhak, that I still remember. Remembering his friends, he said that he was my friend. One Baburam Vajpayee ji, whose house is behind here. Ram Vilas Tripathi ji of second Rasulabad. Like these two, many of our own people got separated from us. At the same time, some left us due to this invisible disease corona. I pay homage to all such people.

There is an appeal to all of you that the third wave of corona is coming, children must wear masks. Everyone must get the vaccine. Thanks to the Prime Minister that he has given free vaccine for the country.
