PM Modi @ Red Fort: 'How can govt officials going to office on time be news?'

August 15, 2014 07:49

PM Modi @ Red Fort: 'We don't want to go ahead with the strength of numbers; we want to go ahead with unanimity. This could be seen in the just concluded Parliament session. We have taken the Opposition in agreement at every step.'

'I am an outsider in New Delhi. I have been away from the elite in this city. In the 2 months I have been here I now have an insider view. I was astonished. I saw many governments functioning within a government. One department fighting the other. So we are trying to break this wall; we want to have one mission and target: Take the nation forward.'

'Have been taken back by reports in the media about government officials coming to office on time ever since Modi government came to power. How can that be news? That's their duty.'
