Salient Points of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s addressing a gathering at the BJP headquarter in New Delhi on 12th March, 2017

  • First and foremost, let me wish you all a very Happy Holi.
  • In addition to electing governments, elections are also about Lok Shikshan and to deepen the bond between people and a democracy.
  • Election turnout across India is increasing.I see this as a very good sign
  • There are many reasons for a win but such an empathetic win after such a record turnout is special & makes everyone think.
  • Development is always a central issue during every election. But, earlier parties were scared to fight elections on development
  • I am seeing a New India….the India of the dreams of India’s Yuva Shakti
  • A New India that fulfils the aspirations of our Nari Shakti. A New India that is about opportunities for the poor
  • The poor are saying- I want to progress and I seek the opportunity from you. This is the foundation of a new India.
  • With these wins we have the responsibility of being humble. Power is not about posts. Power is an opportunity to serve
  • Generations of individuals have given their lives to build this party. They travelled all over India to make the party strong
  • These elections are an emotional issue for us. They come when we mark the centenary celebrations of Pandit Deen Dayal Ji
  • Antyodaya is integral to our work. We understand the strength of India’s poor
  • The burden on the middle class should reduce. This will enable our middle classes to shine
  • The strength of the poor and the aspirations of the middle class will take India to new heights.
  • Through the membership drive, the BJP has been able to become the largest political party in the world
  • We have never got anything for free or easily. And we do not have any regrets. We are ones who have always been working for people
  • I am not someone who looks at things only from an election perspective. I see things for the wellbeing of the people
  • In 2022 we mark 75 years of independence, which will be a landmark moment for the nation
  • I am happy that people ask me- why do you work so much
  • Sarkar is made with ‘Bahutmat’ but runs through ‘Sarvamat’ – ours is a government of everyone
