00:54Namaskar
00:56Honourable Minister Duttaji, Varney and all other dignitaries
01:05If we, I remember
01:10In 2004
01:15Number of murders were committed
01:18Multiple corporations were there
01:20Municipality would say, no no no, we are not going to put you on the road. Traffic, we can't stop it.
01:38And I was fortunate at that time, Deputy Chief Minister and Home Minister too.
01:45And I said no, this marathon will take place at any cost.
01:50And then we done it.
01:55Last 20 years there was an attack on Mumbai.
01:59That time also what to do, whether we should call the people together.
02:03Police commissioner was little bit scared because of Kasab attack on Mumbai.
02:10Just month before, he said no, we should show the world that we are not going to spare of these attacks.
02:19And we are not going to sit at home.
02:22We will come out, we will stress all the situations.
02:26And that time also, lakhs of people on the roads with me.
02:33And we shown the unity to them.
02:36After 10 years, I remember, we got that torch frame, marathon frame.
02:44And there was big appreciation also.
02:47He said that this marathon is one of the most important marathon of the world.
02:59Too many of people, so many prizes, the people on the roads, etc.
03:07So we started, you know, comparing with this popular marathon, this marathon, that marathon.
03:13But we are very happy that we have come on the, at that level.
03:19And now 20 years, just now.
03:22Now this is a new venture in fact.
03:25Bang the bell, and then the countdown will go on.
03:30Okay, good.
03:32And I think that to be honest, all of us would be waiting for that moment.
03:41And not only that waiting, we have to work hard.
03:46Because the preparations and publicity and the guests and what not.
03:53Not me, but Anil Singh and Anil Singh and his team, they are going to be very busy.
04:02Of course, they are busy since last one month only.
04:06But hereafter, perhaps,
04:16Just like any program, if we take responsibility,
04:22We are very thankful.
04:29So, this kind of, you know, always these people are under pressure that yes, we have to give 100%.
04:40Many dignitaries will be there on that day.
04:44For the presentation of the trophies and all.
04:50That is also there.
04:52I think that now these people have become champions.
04:57How to handle all the situations.
