Following are the highlights of his speech:
- After taking oath as PM I had talked to Pakistan PM on the issue of fishermen being imprisoned. This was the first thing I talked about.
- I told Pakistan PM that you not only imprison the fishermen but also take their boats. First time in 10 years, Pakistan released over 50 boats.
- Those asking for our answers never remembered the poor, the fishermen. We took care of them.
- This is a new district and it needs lot of support. Elect a BJP government with a full majority and it will become among the best districts.
- The people, all of you are my high command. I will give answers to you for everything we have done.
- For years Congress never made a Ministry for the development of tribal communities. It was Atalji's government that did that.
- Those who ask me for hisaab, never worried about poor parents or poor daughters or poor fishermen. we cared about these people.
- In 60 years what did the Congress do? Did they ever give you 'hisaab'? Why do they ask me for it then?
- I was not born in the house of a PM or a CM. I was brought up amongst you so I will answer to you.
- You are seeing on TV how these terrorists are beheading people. They are using it to scare the world.
- But with your blessings we ensured that our daughters of Kerala who were there returned home safely. Nothing happened to them.
- I dream that everyone has a home that has electricity, water, toilets, a school nearby, a hospital nearby.
