कहा गया है कि "जब आप एक पुस्तक खोलते हैं तो आप एक नई दुनिया खोलते हैं।
मेरा आग्रह है कि आप सभी एक पुस्तक पढ़कर उसके बारे में #MyBookMyFriend के साथ मुझे बताएं की आप इस समय कौन सी पुस्तक पढ़ रहें हैं |#WorldBookDay pic.twitter.com/ex3uhDH9kl
He then requests that students should keep reading books other than their textbooks and try to read at least 3-4 books in a year. He also urges everyone else, who may not be a student, to find time to read a book. Books are the real wealth that stays with us, he says.
He has also urged everyone to read at least one book on the World Book Day and share the same on social media using the hashtag 'MyBookMyFriend'. He says that one can also make a resolve to read 3-4 books in a year.
तो इंतजार किस बात का है "वर्ल्ड बुक डे" पर आप किस किताब को अपना दोस्त बना रहे हैं मुझे #MyBookMyFriend के साथ शेयर करना ना भूलें। मैं भी इस समय जो पुस्तक पढ़ रहा हूँ उसे आप लोगों के साथ साझा करूँगा।

He emphasizes that one can book motivational books or books written on the lives of motivational figures like Swami Vivekananda, Mahatma Gandhi, and Shri Aurobindo. Reading such books will help us acquire knowledge about the different works people have done in different fields and learn from their experiences.
He has also nominated the likes of Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, Railway Minister Piyush Goyal, and I&B Minister Prakash Javadekar to share what they are reading and has called upon celebrities in different fields to share the book they are reading on social media with the hashtag '#MyBookMyFriend'.
