New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday addressed the nation from the ramparts of historic Red Fort for the first time. Here are the 10 best quotes that the PM said in his speech:
1. To all Indians celebrating our Independence Day, greetings from the Pradhan Sewak. I stand before you not as Pradhan Mantri (Prime Minister) but Pradhan Sevak (prime servant).
2. It is a tribute to Indian democracy that a person from a poor family, an ordinary family, is today addressing the nation from the Red Fort.
3. All previous governments have a hand in developing India. State governments have a hand in it as well. I offer my respect to all previous governments and Prime Ministers.
4. I tell the world- Come, Make In India. Sell anywhere but manufacture here. We have the skill and talent.
5. We want to move forward not on the basis of our majority but on consensus. The session that just ended reflects our thinking. We don't believe in the force of majority. We worked with everyone. The credit for this goes not to the PM but the MPs and the opposition.
