In an often emotional speech, Prime-Minister-to-be Narendra Modi addressed a meeting of the BJP's Parliamentary Party today, where he mentioned, among other things, his first visit to Parliament, his devotion towards the BJP and his gratitude for the senior leaders of the party.
Here are five of his best quotes:
Advani ji said Narendra Bhai has done us a favour. Please don't use the word kripa (favour). A son doesn't do a favour to his mother. A son works with dedication. I treat the BJP as my mother just as India is my mother. The party has done me a favour by giving me an opportunity to serve. (Watch Narendra Modi's Speech Here)
