{{Blockquote
|text=Friends, now in ‘Mann Ki Baat’ i.e. MKB, we will talk about KTB. Many of the elderly may not know about KTB. But just ask children, KTB is a superhit among them. KTB means Krish, Trish and Baltiboy. You might know that the favourite animation series of children is called KTB – Bharat Hain Hum and now its second season is also out. These three animation characters tell us about those heroes and bravehearts; men and women associated with the Indian freedom struggle who are not discussed much. Recently, its season-2 was launched in a very special way at the International Film Festival of India, Goa.
The best thing is that this series is broadcast not only in many Indian languages but also in foreign languages. It can be watched on Doordarshan as well as other OTT platforms.<ref>{{Cite web |title=PM's address in the 117th Episode of 'Mann Ki Baat' |url=https://www.pmindia.gov.in/en/news_updates/pms-address-in-the-117th-episode-of-mann-ki-baat/ |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250113075501/https://www.pmindia.gov.in/en/news_updates/pms-address-in-the-117th-episode-of-mann-ki-baat/ |archive-date=13 January 2025 |access-date=2025-02-28 |website=www.pmindia.gov.in |language=en |url-status=live }}</ref>
