A new India is emerging: Narendra Modi

"A new India is emerging, which is being powered by the strength and skills of 125 crore Indians. This India stands for development," he said addressing the BJP workers at the party headquarters in New Delhi.

The BJP has won 312 of the 403 seats in Uttar Pradesh alone while with allies its tally is at 325 decimating the opposition.

Amid chants of Modi and after showering of flower petals, Modi said: "When we mark 75 years of freedom in 2022, we should have made an India that will make Gandhi Ji, Sardar Patel & Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar proud."

"Even the poorest of poor voting in the elections is indication of a new India. The results of Uttar Pradesh shows a new direction and a new India is emerging.

"A new Indian of youth who are below 35 and their dreams is emerging. A new India of the women. A new India is emerging where the poor instead of seeking something is trying to contribute. The poor is saying that he will work hard and move forward and chart his own path if there are opportunities," said Modi.

"I am not thinking about who won and who lost. Poll victory is only an order from the people to fulfil their wishes. We have to make full use of our abilities to fulfil the wishes of the people," said Modi who also recalled the contributions of four generations of leaders like Atal Bihari Vajpayee and L K Advani and who took the party forward.

He said the power and resolve of the middle class and the poor of India would take India forward.

He said the popularity and support of India only increased with each poll.
