PM remembered the days of Jansangh

He said, ‘We are those people who painted the lotus on the walls with devotion because we believed that the lotus painted on the walls will someday get painted on hearts as well.’
‘BJP is the only party that follows democratic processes’
PM Modi said that BJP is the only party which is expanding its work by strictly following the democratic processes as per the constitution of its party and is continuously making itself capable to fulfil the hopes and aspirations of the common people.
Leaders will take membership of the party again
