NEW DELHI: From the heart of Anantnag, two small twin ambassadors are making a big pitch — eight-year-old Zainab and Zaiba have gone viral after warmly inviting Prime Minister Narendra Modi to see Kashmir’s beauty for himself and lend a helping hand to flood victims.
A video circulated on social media on Sunday showing twin girls inviting PM Modi to visit the valley to witness its beauty and assist flood victims.
Zainab and Zaiba, aged eight, from the Kokarnag area of South Kashmir district, were filmed interacting with BJP leader Ravinder Raina.
The politician was visiting the Jablipora Fruit Mandi to commiserate with horticulture traders who had suffered significant losses due to the recent highway blockade caused by landslides.
The twins expressed their desire for the Prime Minister to visit Kashmir.
"We wanted Modi to visit Kashmir because Kashmir is really beautiful. Modi's visit to Kashmir would have added to the valley's splendour," Zainab said, amid loud cheers from those around. "Our Kashmir is beautiful," she added.
When Raina asked them if they wanted to meet Modi, the little girls said "yes."
"We want that … he should come to our Kashmir in summer or when winter comes. We are requesting him once again," Zainab said.
"We have suffered huge losses. Our bridge was washed away in the rain. Apple traders and those who owned orchards suffered terrible losses," Zaiba said.
The twins also called for a cold storage facility in the area to store fruits.
"We want to keep apples in those (stores) because apples are one of our fruits which the people of India also like," Zainab said. "An apple a day keeps the doctor away," she said, sending everyone laughing.
