PM Modi Offering Free Recharge: In today’s world, just as food and exercise are essential, mobile phones have also become an integral part of our lives. Some people cannot go even a moment without their smartphones. People often become agitated if their mobile phones run out of credit; indeed, many have developed a severe addiction to their phones. Without a recharge, one can neither use social media platforms nor make calls.
Consequently, any major news regarding mobile recharges quickly grabs people’s attention. Recently, a message has been going viral on social media claiming that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is offering a free three-month mobile recharge to all Indian mobile users.
The viral post features a photograph of Prime Minister Narendra Modi alongside the names of mobile service providers such as Jio, Airtel, Vi, and BSNL. Upon seeing the post, many people have come to believe that the government has launched such a scheme. However, this claim is completely fake.
