PM Modi said, “Crores of citizens of the nation are working for the resolution of Viksit Bahrat. It is needed that the capital of Viksit Bahart should be a model of Viksit City. Upon seeing misery of the Delhi, can you say is Delhi a capital of modern state? Does it look like a capital? I don’t need to give any answers. Crores of citizens of Delhi always speak about their problems.”

The Prime Minister said, “This is 21st century whose 25 years have been over. The initial 14 years was ruled by Congress, then 11 years you gave to AAP-da, but the problems of the Delhi are still prevailing. They have ruined Delhi. Some ruled for 14 years some 11 years, still the traffic, poor infrastructure, sewage, pollution, dirty water was same. Nothing has changed. Your one vote can change the situation of Delhi. We have to complete all the work of 11 years and work for the upcoming 25-30 years. that’s why I appeal to Delhitees to give a chance to Modi to work for Delhi. I have been able to work for country but not in Delhi. Ek baar Kamal ko bhi dekh lijiye. The way family’s chief takes care of his family, I will do the same for Delhi. Your dreams will be my dreams and I will dedicate everything for you. BJP has track record of doing things what it does.”
