No riots in Gujarat in past 12 years: Modi

Published on: 

Amid blessings by saints to reach ‘Delhi ki Gaddi’, Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi chanted sarvebhavantu sukhins, sarve shantu niramaya at Patanjali Yogpeeth here on Friday in an attempt to break the jinx that he was leader of a particular community. 

Modi, who inaugurated the Acharyakulam Shikshan Sansthan, said that the mantra sarve bhavantu sukhina was his manifesto since he wished the well-being and good health for one and all. He said that he worked for all, including his rivals, his supporters and neutrals, by carrying out development in Gujarat. So, he was not leader on any community.

Giving credit of his victory to six crore Gujaratis, he tried to strengthen his bond with the people who shouted ‘Narendra Modi jindabad’, ‘Narendra Modi jindabad’ throughout his speech. Modi also tried to justify his development model by connecting it to the people’s faith in him who sent him to the post of Chief Minister thrice in Gujarat.

Amid Namo-Namo from audience in the huge hall full to its capacity, Modi defined Gujarat as a riot-free State presently where no riots have taken place during the past 12 years. Saying that he didn’t want blessings from saints for any political position, Modi conveyed the message that he didn’t have any passion for the ‘position’.
