YOGI ADITYANATH

I have always faced challenges in my life.

We have adopted zero-tolerance policy against terrorism. We have not fed biryani to terrorists.

Due to Modi ji's leadership, people's participation in building a base for inclusive growth and a strong country became possible.

Shah Rukh Khan should remember that if a huge mass in society would boycott his films, he will also have to wander on streets like a normal Muslim.

There is no doubt that the government under Modi, on every front, has given an exemplary performance, and the attraction of the common man towards Modi has definitely grown.

The BJP has a zero-tolerance policy towards terrorism and is determined to equip the Indian armed forces with modern and hi-tech equipment and take steps to restrict illegal immigration.

The BJP is a large family, and if someone comes to us with a commitment towards our values and principles, then it should not be opposed.

If Bombay can become Mumbai, Bangalore can become Bengaluru, Madras can become Chennai, and Calcutta can become Kolkota, there is no reason why Allahabad should not become Prayagraj and Faizabad should not become Ayodhya. To re-establish our original identity, we have renamed these places. I am happy that people have welcomed this.

I think there are lot of people who do politics in the name of Dr. Lohia, but his dream has been fulfilled by PM Modi.

U.P. is a big state. I don't have enough leadership experience for such a big state. I requested the party for two experienced associates to help me and work with me.

The youth should work on popularising central and state government schemes among people. The young generation should make social media their weapon.

A victory for the BJP means a victory for prosperity and development.

After Modi became the PM, development happened across the country.

I believe Bengal is a part of India.

A Hindu is interested in the welfare of all: not merely humans, but all living beings.

In the 55-60 years of their rule, the successive Congress government have only looted the country and plunged it into poverty, casteism, regionalism, terrorism, and naxalism.

The BJP has decided that politics is for values and ideals, and for this, an age limit has been decided. I think that for democracy and for political parties, this is a good indicator. It will be good if all the political parties adhere to this, thereby strengthening India's democracy.

Just like if you leave energy free and uncontrolled and unregulated, it may become useless and destructive. Similarly, 'shakti swaroopa stree'- woman as the epitome of power - does not really need freedom but a meaningful role with protection and channelisation.

The Election Commission stopped me from campaigning. I accepted it and reached people through my prayer - in silence. People gave their approval. Praying in silence is important, and this spiritual prayer has paid off.

My resolve is to work for the development of the state and the welfare of the people, so I will tackle all challenges. That's my vision.

I will ensure that no criminal will ever get any political protection in my government. If anyone takes law in his hands, he would not be spared.

Any person should have enough sense to know that a PM should have public support. Numbers should be with them.

Winning and losing have their significance in a democracy. But there should be no arrogance in victory, nor should there be any despondency in defeat.

The day every poor person in this country has a toilet in his home and his fuel requirements are met, whoever is the PM then shall rule for at least 25 years.

The AAP government has turned Delhi into a city of potholes and has hurt the sentiments of people of the city.
