Prime Minister Narendra Modi addresses party workers at the BJP headquarters
- I bow to the people of Gujarat and Himachal Pradesh
- Before UP elections, they predicted our doom and said similar things in Gujarat. But you proved them wrong. These predictions don't help anyone, only hurt the country.
- These results show the country is ready for reform, rewards performance and is keen to be transformed
- These consecutive victories and that too only on the issue of development show a new direction in India's politics
- There was all kinds of talk before the Gujarat election. They hatched all kinds of conspiracies and said "just make them lose once". They also made fun of vikas (development).
- You can celebrate as much as you want after BJP loses but don't hurt the country. This government works only for development. The results today endorse this.
- Casteism was so prevalent in Gujarat that it took workers like us 30 years to free the state from its clutches.
- Some people, out of hunger for power, in the last few months tried to sow the seeds of casteism. But the people of Gujarat rejected them.
- 6.5 crore Gujaratis are united, noble and want to go ahead together. I appeal to them to embrace each other and move ahead.
- I want you to repeat after me: jeetega bhai jeetega, vikas hi jeetega. This is our motto.
