BJP will emerge victorious in all 5 states assembly elections, says PM Modi | HIGHLIGHTS

PM Modi hits back at Rahul Gandhi, says, “How do I reply to person who does not listen, skips Parliament?”

"I have maintained silence on the issue. Supreme Court is looking into the matter seriously. Any statement that I make in this regard will impact the investigation, and it is not right," says PM Modi on his security breach in Punjab’s Ferozepur

'BJP is the most trusted party in Punjab now. Hence Captain Amarinder Singh joined us. Because he too want to serve Punjab: PM Modi

Congress instigated exodus of people during Covid's first and second wave: PM Modi

I have come to win the hearts of farmers, & did so. I understand the pain of small farmers. I had said that farm laws were implemented for the benefit of farmers but were taken back in national interest: PM Narendra Modi to ANI

We believe-for country's progress we've to address regional aspirations. I was a CM too, & understand states' aspirations. Earlier,leaders coming to India used to visit only Delhi, but I took them to different states. We believe in unity in diversity but some leaders followed ‘divide&rule’ policy…We identified over 100 aspirational districts in the country. Today,some of these districts have crossed the national average on many parameters. This is a way to address regional aspirations: PM

"We saw game of 'two boys' earlier too. They had such arrogance that they used the words 'Gujarat ke do gadhe'. UP taught them a lesson. Another time there were 'two boys' & a 'bua ji' with them. Still, it didn't work out for them..," says PM on political dynamics in UP

"Didn't speak against anyone's father/grandfather...I said what a former PM had said...It's the right of the nation (to know).They say we don't mention Nehru ji. If we do, then too there's difficulty. Don't understand this fear," PM over speaking on Pt Nehru in Parliament

Govt has no business to do business. Its job is to think about food for the poor, make houses & toilets for them, get them clean drinking water, make health facilities available to them, make roads, to think about the small farmers. This is my priority. If somebody calls this socialism, I accept it. When I talk of fake socialism, it's about dynasty. Can you see Lohia ji's, George Fernandes', Nitish Kr's families? They're socialists. I received letter that 45 ppl from SP, hold some post. This dynasticism is threat to democracy

"We start classification on caste basis during tickets distribution & discuss what vote percent would be given by which community. We should change it. Want to go ahead with 'sabka saath, sabka vikas' mantra. Unity imp to take nation forward," PM on polarisation in polls

When a party is run for generations by a family, there's only dynasty, not dynamics. Starting from J&K, where there're two parties run by two separate families, you can see similar trend in Haryana, Jharkhand,UP &TN. Dynastic politics is biggest enemy of democracy: PM Modi

State Govt gave its consent for whatever committee Supreme Court wanted to form, for whichever judge SC wanted for probe. State govt is working transparently: PM Modi on Lakhimpur Kheri incident, MoS Home Ajay Mishra Teni & Oppn alleging 'whitewash' of whoever comes to BJP

If someone tries to encash Yogi ji's hard work & successful schemes, what I understand from it is that his schemes are so wonderful, that he turned impossible into possible, that rivals have also come out to encash it. I consider this Yogi ji's credit: PM on Akhilesh Yadav & oppn

When people discuss security in UP, they think of their troubles during previous govts, mafia raj, gunda raj, the manner in which musclemen had a status and shelter in govt. UP saw this from close quarters, women couldn't step out. Today women say that they can step out even after dark. This trust is essential for security. There was a time in UP when goons could do anything they wanted, today they surrender. Yogi ji prioritised security & didn't compromise with it.

BJP began winning after losing again & again. When we win, we try to connect to grassroots&leave no stone unturned in winning hearts. We look for hope even in loss. For us, polls are like open universities with opportunities for new recruitments & to polish ourselves, PM Modi said on elections.

BJP is always involved in serving people. When in power, we work with mantra of 'sabka saath, sabka vikas'. I can see a wave for BJP in all states. We'll win with an overwhelming majority & people in 5 states will give us an opportunity to serve them, said PM Modi.

Wherever BJP has been given the opportunity to work with stability, there you will find an atmosphere of pro-incumbency and not anti-incumbency. BJP always emerges into elections with pro-incumbency, PM Modi said.

Assembly elections in UP, Punjab, Goa, Uttarakhand, and Manipur will be conducted in 7 phases beginning February 10, last phase polling on March 7 and counting of votes on March 10.
