Gandhinagar, December 24: Making an indirect reference to his adversaries, Narendra Modi, who will take oath as Chief Minister of Gujarat for the third time on Tuesday, said "it is the need of the hour that we show large-heartedness towards each and everyone".

"Some people may have failed to see the changing times and the turn of events. It is the demand of the time that we show large-heartedness towards each and everyone," Modi said after he was unanimously elected as BJP Legislature Party leader.

Modi acknowledged his indebtedness to the BJP workers in helping him surmount the manifold problems and emerge victorious in the recent assembly elections.

Tracing the problem of rebellion in the BJP to corruption, he said that those people who were involved in 'hanky-panky' business have gone (lene-denewale woh log chale gaye).

"People thought that as we had not made appointments to the boards and corporations, there would be large-scale disaffection in the party and the BJP would lose.

"However, the BJP workers have not come to make commission but are out on a mission. They have not joined the party to receive but to give something back to the society," Modi said.
