She said, "I learnt about my selection from TV news channels. I am fortunate that I can now meet Modiji after getting the ticket. Woh Is Yug Ke MahaYogi Hain. (He is a MahaYogi of this age). Without meeting me, or without knowing me, he selected me only on the basis of my (social) work. I have been doing charitable work for the last 20 years. I had promised to ensure 1,009 normal deliveries free of charge in the Hyderabad LS constituency in the next 8 to 10 months."
"What more can I say about Modi Bhai? Sitting in Delhi, without knowing me, he felt that I could give a fight to Asad Ji (Owaisi) and he gave me the ticket. What more transparent politics can be like this?", Madhavi Latha added.
