At the same time, the PM also asked for the medium of his earnings. The PM questioned Badami Devi regarding the pucca house and ration facility.

Badami Devi also thanked PM Modi for the benefits of government schemes. She addressed PM Modi several times as minister in a Banarasi accent. At the same time, she answered PM Modi's questions very casually. Badami Devi said, "We all have facilities. By your grace, the house will be paved from the hut. Rations are available every month. Toilets, electricity, gas, got everything.'

PM Modi also told Badami Devi that she speaks very quickly. They have benefited from so many schemes that they have to write on paper.
