Prime Minister Narendra Modi today thanked Gujarat for the massive, record-breaking mandate in the assembly elections, saying he was "humbled by their trust and faith in us". Speaking at the party headquarters in Delhi, PM Modi -- whose personal popularity and contribution to the victory is seen as the largest -- made light of his role. "I had said during the campaign in Gujarat that this time that Narendra Modi's record (of 127 seats in 2002) has to be broken.... that Bhupendra (Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel) will break Narendra's record, and for that Narendra will work relentlessly and with all his heart and mind," he said. That, he added, "resonated with the people".
