Multiplicity of ideas and human expression make us more vibrant as a society and a free press makes for a stronger democracy, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on the World Press Freedom Day.

“Today on #WorldPressFreedomDay, let us reaffirm our commitment towards steadfastly supporting a free press. It is the multiplicity of ideas and human expression that makes us more vibrant as a society,” he said in a series of tweets.

Modi applauded all those who have been working tirelessly to uphold the freedom of press.

The United Nations General Assembly had declared May 3 as World Press Freedom Day to raise awareness about freedom of press.
