The corridors of power in Delhi were littered with lobbies of various kinds. The task of cleaning the corridors of power (or cleaning the lobby of lobbies) was important so that the government machinery itself is improved. This process of correction and cleaning took quite some time but it will provide long-term benefits in the form of clean and fair governance.

Sab kaa saath, sab kaa vikas. This is our mantra.

Let us build a SAARC satellite which we can dedicate to our neighbourhood, as a gift from India.

We do not run government on whims of an individual, our progress is reforms driven, our reforms are policy driven and our policies are people driven.

Social media changed my thought process and connected me to the rest of the world. And as I started connecting, the world started accepting me as I was. Nothing could be more satisfying.

Any criminal act against any individual or institution in India is to be condemned. The attackers must be strongly punished as per law. I have said this before and I say it again: any discrimination or violence against any community will not be tolerated. My position on this is very clear: Sab ka saath, sab ka vikas. We stand for every one of the 1.25 billion Indians regardless or caste or creed and we will work for the progress of every one of them.

We are bringing technology into governance in a very big way. This is making governance easy, effective, economic and transparent.
