Here are the live updates on Narendra Modi's election campaign in Gujarat:
When I had taken over as chief minister, farmers from Patan and Banaskantha met me and I told them to focus on irrigation. People told me this approach will ensure you are defeated. I said - I do not care for the chair, I want to work for the farmers and want to work for Banaskantha and Patan, says PM Modi
Mr Mani Shankar Aiyar told people when he visited Pakistan - remove Modi from the way and then see what will happen to India-Pakistan peace. What did he mean by removing me from the way. And what is my crime, that we have the blessings of the people: PM Narendra Modi
Earlier, people from here would have to travel a considerable distance to pray to Maa Narmada. Due to BJP, Narmada waters have come to this region and Maa Narmada is blessing us all: PM Narendra Modi in Banaskantha's Bhabhar Those who did not stand with Banaskantha in the bad times of flood can not be excepted to serve either this district or the state of Gujarat, says PM Modi
The conduct of Indira Gandhi and the Congress in Morbi and the service of RSS and Jan Sangh Karyakartas was for everyone to see. RSS and Jan Sangh did everything possible and stood shoulder to shoulder with people: PM Modi
BJP was doing relief work, Congress was busy with resort work, says PM Narendra Modi
People of Patan and Banaskantha know the difference between Congress and BJP. When there were floods here Congress MLAs were relaxing in Bengaluru whereas BJP leaders were working with people, helping in relief operations: PM Modi
This rally is huge. I want all those Pundits speculating on this election to come and see the fervour here: Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Bhabhar.
