New Delhi: India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday recalled an opposition leader’s observatio­n which stated that becoming PM twice was enough accomplish­ment while asserting that he has no intention of slowing down.

The Prime Minister said: “One day, a senior leader met me. He regularly opposes us politicall­y, but I respect him. He was not happy over some issues, so he had come to meet me.

“He said the country has made you Prime Minister twice, so what more do you want now. He was of the opinion that if one becomes PM twice then he has achieved everything,” said the Prime Minister.

PM Modi further said that his dream is saturation and 100 per cent coverage of welfare schemes.

“They don’t know Modi is made up of a different soil. The land of Gujarat has made him.

“That’s why I do not believe in taking it easy, like whatever has happened has happened and now I should rest.

“No. My dream is saturation, 100 per cent coverage of the welfare schemes,” he added.

His remarks came a month after
