'Reminded Me of My Mother': PM Narendra Modi's Heartfelt Note to Neeraj Chopra's Mum After Tasting 'Churma'

New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi has written a letter to Saroj Devi, mother of Olympic medallist Neeraj Chopra, for the delicious ‘choorma’ that she specially made and sent for the PM, observing that her culinary skills reminded him of his own mother.

In the letter dated October 2, 2024, PM Modi said that he met Neeraj Chopra at an event organised on the occasion of the official visit of the Prime Minister of Jamaica, where the javelin thrower delivered the homemade choorma.

“My delight at meeting him was doubled after he gave me the delicious choorma made by you. Neeraj usually tells me about what delicious choorma you make so today, I could not stop myself from writing this letter to you as I got very emotional after eating it. Your gift sent with affection and familiarity reminded me of my mother,” PM Modi said in the letter.
