I will continue working for the development of the state for the next five years,” he said.

These people not only do not want to accept the truth, they even today underestimate the discretion of the common voter of India. The voters of the country are with the idea of ‘Nation First’. The voters of the country do not like those who dream of the ‘chair first’.”
