Whatever Narendra Modi did for the country in 10 years - public was waiting for the day of voting. Today, counting is being done across the country. It will begin at 8 am and I am confident that with the trends that come in by 12 noon, PM Modi will become the PM for the third time and by 4 pm, it will be '400 paar'..."
As the counting of votes began, he expressed confidence in winning Delhi's North West Lok Sabha seat by securing more votes than the previous winning candidate.
