Ayodhya (Uttar Pradesh) [India], June 8 (ANI): Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Saturday offered prayers at the Hanumangarhi Temple in Ayodhya and said that the country is moving towards a golden India under the leadership of Prime Minister-designate Narendra Modi.
“I wanted to do Ram Lalla’s ‘darshan’ for many days… Today, I am happy to come here… I prayed that Modi Ji’s next term should be very well, Assam and the whole country should be very well… In the history of India, this is the first time that any prime minister will take the PM’s oath for the third time. This is historic… We are moving towards a golden India under the leadership of Narendra Modi,” Assam CM told ANI.
On the swearing-in ceremony of PM-designate Narendra Modi, Assam CM said this is a golden opportunity for our country.
“This is a golden opportunity for our country. I hope and pray that God gives strength to Narendra Modi…The moment we will witness tomorrow will be amazing in itself,” he said.
He further attacked Congress and said that Congress has no accountability and that even after 10 years they could not reach even 100.
“I had been in Congress, I would have held the Gandhi family accountable… Just to make sure that they are not answerable, some people are running propaganda and celebrating for a party that has lost,” he said.
On losing the Faizabad seat he said that there were 542 seats in which the party would win some and lose some seats.
“There are 542 seats, we will win some and lose some. So what is the issue?… Narendra Modi is going to be the Prime Minister for the third time with the blessings of Lord Ram,” he said.
