Modi reminded the role of a leader India has played in the world and hoped it once again plays that role again. "There is something in this soil that makes India special. History is full of examples of how our land has shown the way to the world and today once again, our destined role of a Jagad Guru calls us. Let us rise to the occasion and create a strong, developed and inclusive India that will show the way to the world," he said.
Modi said the campaign was a wonderful opportunity to once again witness India's "celebrated diversity, the vibrancy of the people and the beauty of our culture". He said the "unprecedented" blessings received from people have been "very humbling" and said even if one would be tired after such a long campaign he was experiencing satisfaction and freshness like after a long and elaborate "Sadhna".
"Through the campaign, I got to worship the Janata Janardan," he said. Though campaigning for the nine-phased polling ended today, Modi urged the voters, especially the youth, to come out in large numbers to vote for the last phase on Monday.
