“Criticism Is Soul Of Democracy”: PM Modi On Lex Fridman Podcast


New Delhi:

Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in a podcast with US computer scientist and podcaster Lex Fridman, has said that criticism is the “soul of democracy”. He added that he welcomes criticism and there should be more of it. “We should have more criticism, and it should be sharp and well-informed,” he said.  

Asked about criticism levelled at him and how he deals with it, PM Modi said he welcomes it. 

“I have a strong belief that criticism is the soul of democracy. If democracy truly runs in your veins, you must embrace it,” he said. 

Expanding on it, he said, “In our scriptures, it’s said: “Always keep your critics close”. Critics should be your nearest companions because through genuine criticism, you can improve quickly and work democratically with better insights.
