If India wants to stride ahead, it will have to strike hard on corruption, PM Modi continued.

Digital India has curbed corruption, but the fight is getting harder. When They cross limits of shamelessness to defend corruption, the thrust of third term of NDA government will be to end corruption, he said.

In the last ten years, we took many historic decisions. We ran people friendly schemes. 12 crore people got tap water connection, 4 crore got pucca houses, 80 crore people got free ration: Modi

The PM shared that it is an emotional moment for me personally, after my mother passed, this was my first election. But the mothers, daughters of this country never let me miss my mother. Mothers, daughters and sisters gave me unprecedented love, this cannot be measured in numbers. Women broke all records of voting. The love cannot be expressed in words, it is etched in my mind. Women have given me a new inspiration.

In 2014, country was lost in despair and disappointment, every day newspapers were filled with headlines of scams. Young people were disillusioned. At that time we were tasked with pulling the country out of despair . We worked honestly. In 2019, the country gave us a chance a second time. In 2024, we are back with the blessings that NDA got: Modi
