Our nation on cusp of take-off... Indians want this flight to be expedited: PM Modi

New Delhi: Exuding confidence in returning to his 7 Lok Kalyan Marg residence for a third, straight term in office, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said his fellow citizens have come to realise that the country is poised for a giant leap and want their aspirations to take wings at the earliest.

The BJP swept three heartland states -- Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh -- that went to Assembly polls last month, building a good head of steam and electoral momentum going into the Lok Sabha polls next year.


In an interview with the UK-based daily Financial Times, Prime Minister Modi said the Indians now appreciate and acknowledge that the country is on the cusp of take-off and want "this flight to be expedited".

His remark is being seen in the context of the next general elections, which are scheduled to be held between April and May 2024. PM Modi said he was "very confident of victory", invoking his government's track record in bringing "solid change in the common man's life".

"Today, the people of India have very different aspirations from the ones they had 10 years back," PM Modi said in the interview, adding, "They realise that our nation is on the cusp of a take-off. They want this flight to be expedited, and they know the best party to ensure this is the one which brought them this far."
