Addressing BJP workers at the party headquarters, Prime Minister today said Gujarat has broken all records and created history by showering love on the BJP despite the party being in power in the state for 25 years.
The BJP was on course to win 156 seats in the 182-member state assembly, its best ever performance in Gujarat.
PM Modi said the support to BJP shows that people's anger against dynasty rule and corruption was rising.
Towards the end of his speech, in a veiled reference to 'Big Media', PM Modi said that it was time that people realise the reality of those feign neutrality.
He added that as a consequence of the latest electoral results, the attacks on him from such quarters would only increase.
He said the only answer to such attacks was increasing tolerance and growing one's wisdom.
'I am thankful to the voters of Himachal also, where our vote share was just less than one per cent below that of the winning party,' he said.
'I bow to people. Their blessings are overwhelming,' the prime minister said.
