- Middlemen are no longer roaming the corridors of power
- Friends in the opposition are very funny. They claim that that Modi government are a failure. The opposition still keep looking to make alliances. This is adulteration.
- Opposition's political culture of abusing PM Modi may give them some space in television but the elections are fought on one's vision for the nation, not slander and attack
- The opposition is only good at spreading panic. Time and again they have tried to mislead the farmers, poor and youngsters of the nation
- I bow to the land of Tiruppur. This land stands for bravery. It is the land of Tiruppur Kumaran who sacrificed his life for the National Flag. This land belongs to Dheeran Chinnamalai whose bravery motivates the entire country.
