  • I believe that if we look at the results of the 2024 Lok Sabha Elections, from every parameter, the world believes that this is NDA's 'Mahavijay'. 
  • You saw how the two days went, it seemed as if we had lost, because they (opposition) had to make such imaginary promises to raise the morale of their workers. 
  • If we look at the statistics in the history of the alliance, then this is the strongest alliance government. 
  • An attempt was made not to accept this victory

  • For me, all the leaders of all the parties are equal in the Parliament. When we talk about Sabka Prayaas, for us everyone becomes equal whether they are from our party or not. 
  • This is the reason the NDA alliance has been strong and moved ahead in the last 30 years.
  • When results were coming out on 4th June, I was busy with work. Phone calls started coming in later. I asked someone, numbers are fine, tell me EVM zinda hai ki mar gaya. 
  • These people (Opposition) had decided to ensure that people stop believing in democracy and democratic process of India. 
  • They continuously abused EVM. I thought they would take out the funeral procession of the EVM. 
  • But by the evening of 4th June, unko taale lag gaye. EVM ne unko chup kar diya. This is the strength of India's democracy, its fairness...I hope I won't get to hear about EVM for 5 years. But when we go into 2029, perhaps they will again harp about EVM...The country will never forgive them

  • NDA is a group committed to the nation first. It must have been assembled in the beginning after a long period of 30 years. 
  • But today I can say that NDA is an organic alliance in the political system of India and great leaders like Atal Bihari Vajpayee, Parkash Singh Badal, Balasaheb Thackeray...who sown the seed, today the people of India have watered the trust of NDA and turned that seed into a fruitful one. 
  • We all have the legacy of such great leaders and we are proud of it. In the past 10 years, we have tried to move forward with the same legacy, the same values ​​of NDA and to take the country forward.

"There are 10 states in our country where the number of our tribal brothers is decisively high, NDA is serving in 7 out of these 10 states...Whether it is Goa or Northeast, where the number of Christians is decisively high, NDA has got the opportunity to serve in those states as well...", says PM Modi at NDA Parliamentary Party meeting.

  • I am very fortunate that all of have unanimously chosen me as the leader of NDA. 
  • You all have given me a new responsibility and I am very grateful to you.
  • When I was speaking in this House in 2019, you all chose me as the leader, then I emphasized one thing which is trust. 
  • Today, when you are giving me this role, it means that the bridge of trust between us is strong. This relationship is on a strong foundation of trust and this is the biggest asset.
