Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday urged the BJP workers to become a “bridge of faith” for the common man, saying service is the highest form of worship. Modi also expressed hope that the party will win the upcoming Assembly elections in five states.
"When I was listening to the state presidents and CMs of the five states going to elections, I realised that their confidence is derived from the satisfaction of the work they have done for their states in the past five years. This is the beauty of service," he said, addressing the BJP National Executive in New Delhi.
The prime minister claimed that the entire world is praising India today. "It is not because of someone called Modi, but because of the will and confidence of the people and the faith they have in themselves.”
In an apparent dig at the Congress party, Modi asserted the BJP has been connected to the common man and does not revolve around a family. BJP runs on the values of Sewa, Sanklap aur Samparan (service, resolution and commitment), he said.
The prime minister opined that those who were with the BJP since its inception needs to be honoured. “A new culture of service has been demonstrated by the karyakartas of the BJP. Sewa hi Sangathan has served the nation during tough times," he said.
