As part of Azadi ka Amrit Mahotsav, the government has initiated several steps to celebrate unsung tribal heroes of the freedom struggle. These include declaring 15th November (birth anniversary of tribal freedom fighter Birsa Munda) as 'Janjatiya Gaurav Divas', setting up tribal museums across the country etc to recognise the contribution of tribal people to society and increase awareness about their sacrifices in the freedom struggle.
Highlighting the point that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is accorded great honour abroad, Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot said this was because "he is PM of the nation of Gandhi and they feel PM of that country is coming."
