Prime Minister Narendra Modi is all set to reach out to citizens through his first-ever 'townhall' style event on August 6. A new PMO app to enable mobile users connect with the Prime Minister's website will also be launched at the mega event, which is being organised by MyGov - the government's citizen engagement platform - to mark its second anniversary.

The townhall to be held at the Indira Gandhi Stadium Complex in New Delhi will be preceded by a series of panel discussions and sessions in keeping with the 'Do, Discuss and Disseminate' theme of MyGov and will culminate in the first ever townhall address by the PM.
