‘Love for Bharat unites us all’: Amit Shah gifts guitar to Mizoram’s 7-year-old singing sensation
NEW DELHI: Union home minister Amit Shah, during his visit to the Northeast, gifted a guitar to seven-year-old Mizoram singing prodigy Esther Lalduhawmi Hnamte after she performed a heartfelt rendition of Vande Mataram in Aizawl on Saturday.
Moved by her performance, Shah took to social media platform X to express his admiration. “Love for Bharat unites us all. Deeply moved to listen to Mizoram’s wonder kid Esther Lalduhawmi Hnamte, singing Vande Mataram in Aizawl today. The seven-year-old’s love for Bharat Mata poured out into her song, making listening to her a mesmerizing experience,” he wrote.
Hnamte, a rising singing sensation, first caught national attention in 2020 when her rendition of Maa Tujhe Salaam went viral. Her powerful voice and patriotic spirit won hearts across the country, earning her multiple awards from the Mizoram government, including a special appreciation from the Governor.
Shah, who is on a three-day visit to Assam starting March 14, made a stop in Mizoram on March 15 to attend the land transfer ceremony of the Assam Rifles’ land to the Mizoram government. During the event, he lauded the Assam Rifles for their service to the people of the state.
“The Assam Rifles has served the people of Mizoram through the guiding principle of security through fraternity. Today, the force set an exemplary standard in commitment to the people by handing over a significant portion of its land to the state government for the benefit of the people,” Shah stated in another post on X.
