Panaji, 9 June 2013

On the day that his party anointed Gujarat Chief Minister as the chief of poll panel for 2014 General and Assembly Elections, Narendra Modi said that he was just a worker of the BJP and would carry out any responsibility that was given to him.
Addressing BJP leaders in the national executive meet here, he said, “I am indebted to Rajnath ji for giving me an added responsibility. He has given me respect in the eyes of not only party workers but also the people of this country,”
“We are all workers of the party. And as workers, we are obliged to do our best to fulfill any responsibility that has been given to us,” he added, saying, “Well begun is half won.”

He also said that the party had guided him at all juncture and had helped him in removing his weaknesses.
“Today, after being elevated as the chief of party’s poll panel, I want to tell everyone that in the BJP, position is responsibility. And a balance has to be maintained between position and responsibility,” Modi said.

The Gujarat CM added that he had full faith in the workers of the Bhartiya Janata Party.

Praising the states where BJP was in power for its growth and development all Modi said, “None of our chief ministers have been accused of any wrongdoings. Those who are accused of corruption are sitting in Delhi. But it does not seem to bother them.”
Modi attacked the Congress for wasting crores on ad campaigns. “The government at the Centre cannot be trusted,” he said without mincing words.

“The Congress is non-serious, it has taken the people of this country for granted and it is not bothered about the youth of this county, Modi said categorically, adding, “Our dream should be to rid this country of Congress.”
