OUR CORRESPONDENT
SURAT: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday said he was given the opportunity to serve as chief minister of Gujarat and then as prime minister of the country even though he had no political or dynastic background, or a caste support.
Modi was speaking after laying the foundation stone virtually for a boys' hostel on the outskirts of Surat, being constructed by the Saurashtra Patel SevaSamaj, a trust working for the welfare of the Patidar community.
I was a common man who did not have any political or dynastic background and no support of caste-based politics. Despite that, your blessings gave me the opportunity to serve Gujarat way back in 2001, he said.
And, such is the power of your blessings that even after 20 years, I am still serving. First I served the people of Gujarat and now I am serving the country, the prime minister added.
He urged people to walk on the path shown by Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel.
