NEW DELHI: In his debut podcast, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said he was a human and not a God. The PM has recorded his first podcast, hosted by Zerodha co-founder Nikhil Kamath. It is likely to be released on Friday. But the trailer has gone viral in which the PM is seen talking on various topics. Modi recalls a speech as Gujarat Chief Minister in the podcast in which he says: “I will not shy away from hard work. I will not do anything for myself. I am human, capable of making mistakes, but I will never do anything wrong with bad intentions.”
