This is not the slogan of the PPP, but our belief. “He said.

I assured you then that I would not bring the country to its knees. I”I decided , with your blessings, I will turn despair into hope and hope into faith. You have spared no effort in blessing and Modi has spared no effort in working hard,” he said.

The BJP government works without any discrimination and we want our policies to benefit everyone and for this we have been working for 10 years. Our mantra is ‘Saturation’ “This means people should benefit 100% and this is true secularism and social justice,” he said.
