In a letter to all BJP-ruled states, Nadda said that that all functions to mark seven years of the Modi government be avoided on 30 May. BJP-ruled states will also launch a scheme on this occasion to help children orphaned during the pandemic, he said.

“Standing by children who have lost both parents and providing them every support for their safe future is also our social responsibility…The idea is that all BJP-ruled states launch the programme together when the BJP-led government at the Centre completes seven years,” PTI quoted Nadda as saying.
