Addressing a rally in Azamgarh, PM Modi said that he is "amazed" by witnessing the love, blessings, and affection of people. "The love, blessings, and affection of you all have amazed the world. The world is witnessing how much trust people in India have in Modi's guarantee. I am seeing it for the first time that news regarding the festival of democracy in India is all over on the first page of the newspapers in the world. It is evidence of how important India's identity is for the world. The world is watching that the people's blessings are with BJP-NDA and on all our friends," he said.

Speaking about the tenure of the Samajwadi Party in the state the Prime Minister said that the old 'Gundaraj' days were now over.

He further attacked Congress and the Samajwadi Party and said that these are two parties but have one shop where they sell appeasement, lies, 'parivarvad', and corruption.
