* Will leave no stone unturned in implementing roadmap outlined by the President in his address.
* We will empower the poor to enable them to fight poverty and come out of it.
* No one will leave villages if they are developed, provided 24 hour-power, good education and industries.
* We should concentrate on agro-based industries.
* Our aim must be to serve the poorest of the poor and to think of their welfare.
* We are sincerely committed to bring down prices. It is our collective responsibility to ensure that nobody sleeps hungry.
* The country needs real-time data on agri-products to deal with price rise.
* We have to stop politicizing rape. We are playing with the dignity of women. Protecting women should be the priority of the people of this country.
* We should plan from today how we will celebrate Mahatma Gandhi's 150th birth anniversary after 5 years.
* We have to do focused activity to change the lives of Muslims; they cannot be left behind in development.
* Our image has become 'scam India', we have to convert it to 'skill India'.
* We welcome criticism, in a democracy, criticism gives strength and it will guide us.
* We need to focus on skill development, decisions have to be taken with great courage.
* I don't want to move forward without you (opposition), I don't want to move ahead on basis of numbers but on the basis of collectivity.
* We don't believe in big brother attitude towards states, we believe in cooperative federalism. There should be competition among states for development, I want to hear states saying they have left Gujarat behind.
