Veteran Bollywood actor Anupam Kher has extended his support to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's recent appeal for fuel conservation by choosing to travel on the Vande Bharat Express from Jaipur to Delhi. The actor shared a video of his journey on social media, urging citizens to adopt small changes in their daily lives to help the nation.
This gesture comes shortly after PM Modi appealed to the nation to reduce fuel consumption amid rising economic pressures. The Prime Minister had encouraged the use of public transport and carpooling.
Anupam Kher's Video
In a video posted on his social media, Anupam Kher captioned it with, "My small effort in the campaign of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi for the country! Jai Hind!" He started the video saying, "Namaskar friends, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has appealed to the people of the country that we should all try to save petrol and diesel. Where possible, we should use public transport. We should do carpooling. We should avoid taking out our car for short distances. And in our daily lives, we should make small changes and contribute to the country. I think he is absolutely right."

Backing the appeal, he added, "And with that in mind, I am travelling from Jaipur to Delhi by Vande Bharat train. It is not a big sacrifice. But if we all start making small efforts, it can have a big impact."
Emphasising the change needed, he said, "In today's world, being a responsible citizen does not just mean talking. In fact, it is important to make small changes in our habits."
Explaining further, he concluded his video saying, "For example, if two people can travel in one car, then why take out two separate cars? I feel that service to the country is not limited to the border. Sometimes, we see it in the small decisions of our daily lives. And it should be seen. So let's contribute as much as we can. Thank you. Jai Hind."
