Prime Minister Narendra Modi called for strengthening the BJP at its roots for a win in the 2019 Lok Sabha polls and also pitched for promoting young faces inside and outside the party. Addressing the BJP parliamentary party, Modi pushed for promoting the younger generation for a "New India", a vision for 2022 promoted by his government. PTI
Modi, who was given a standing ovation by party leaders on the BJP's recent electoral victories in Gujarat and Himachal Pradesh, urged them not to be affected by the Opposition's "disinformation" campaign against the party. PTI
The Congress has projected Gujarat results, where it won its biggest tally since 1985 polls by winning 77 seats while the BJP with 99 seats got its lowest since 1990, as a "moral victory" for itself, a claim termed as a "laughable exercise" by BJP chief Amit Shah at Thursday's meeting. PTI
In his address, Modi also said that Congress under Indira Gandhi got to rule 18 states but the BJP and its allies were in power in 19 states as of now. The saffron party had achieved such a political feat in its three-and-a-half-year rule at the Centre. PTI
