PM Modi on BJP’s evolution 

Talking about BJP’s evolution as a party, PM Modi said, “It is a matter of great pride for all of us that we have spent 4-5 generations on upholding the ideals and values in politics. The BJP has taken on the same ideals and aspirations. From the very beginning, the nature of the party has been that it will expand horizontally and vertically. It is because of this tradition; BJP has a new generation of people who are succeeding in taking the party forward”. 

“Elections are an ongoing process for political parties. It has been BJP's speciality to run its proceedings democratically. We're not here for a short while, we're here to serve our mother India for a long time. Our party has been running on the tracks of conflict and organization,” he added.
