We fought for freedom together. We had no government, no weapons to help us. We defeated such a big empire without any government, without any arms.
Be it caste or communal violence, they stall the growth of the nation. Let us affirm that we will be free from these tensions.
The world has changed. India cannot sit isolated in one corner and determine its future.
I have come with one medicinal herb that I am offering as a remedy to India's problems. And that medicinal herb is 'development'.
Allocating budgets will not suffice. We need to make focused efforts at developing the tribal belt of Gujarat
The BJP is an optimistic party. Our strength and our democratic values are such that even a poor person from a backward section - like me - has been nominated as a Prime Ministerial candidate.
The UPA government is non-serious, it has taken the people for granted & it is not bothered about the youth. Their approach shows lack of faith in democracy. Our goal is to win the trust of the people & give dignity to them...
Economic freedom is very important for women empowerment. They must be partners in economic development also. I have seen that women are very good at adapting to latest technology. We should link women and technology up-gradation.
Our Matru Shakti is our pride. Women empowerment is very crucial to our development.
I invite you all to participate in Make in India.
The coming decade belongs to the right of the poor and the marginalised. The BJP is very clear on that.
The way to end corruption is a progressive, policy driven state with proper implementation.
National festivals should become festivals of development. Republic Day or Independence Day should not be only about unfurling the Tricolour in the state capitals. We have to make them opportunities of Lok Shikshan (Mass Education).
Want to assure people there is no need for pessimism going by the past bad experience; country has huge potential.
