Prime Minister Narendra Modi says BJP is not a power hungry party
Prime Minister Narendra  Modi in an interview to Yourstory said BJP is not a power hungry party and it has not come to power to sleep at the wheel.

"People’s expectations should drive the party to perform better, think of innovative ideas and implement faster," Modi said.
"I feel hope and aspirations are good for any society and country. It is our effort to ensure that our country is brimming with confidence and aspirations. We do not want the negativity and pessimism that was seen during the previous government," Modi said.
Startups
Startups are coming up not only in ecommerce sector, but many other sectors like agri-based, social entrepreneurship, and, most importantly, from places that would surprise many. 44 percent of the startups registered in India are from tier II and tier III cities.
Angel Tax issue is related to a segment of the new economy and it often happens that these issues can't be addressed through the old lens. We need to be sensitive to this fact.
Women Entrepreneurs
Women have a smart and simplified understanding of complex business terms and have excellent management skills and they are also blessed with innovative ideas and creative ways to realise them. They know when it is the right time to conserve capital and when it is a time to stock up on inventory.
MSME Sector
The government launched 12 initiatives to help the MSME sector which ranges from increasing access to the market, to ease of doing business for MSMEs and social security for the employees.
Governance
In this government, systems are equal for everyone. There are no special queues as there is sudden transformation from VIP era to the era of EPI -- every person is important. In the last four years,  the number of operational airports increased to 100 from 65. India's total sanitation coverage grew from 38.70 percent to 96 percent. Ease of Doing Business (EODB) ranking went up from 142 to 77 in the last four years.
Demography
The demographic dividend of India is the government's core strength. While on one hand, several nations, including economically prosperous societies, are getting older, India is getting younger.
The youth of India should question everything. Youngsters should be impatient and they must continue doing so because that is when they will do out-of-the-box things.
Technology
India may have missed the bus during the first three industrial revolutions, but this is a bus India has not only boarded but will also drive. Today's younger generation are at the forefront of technological innovation, be it in Artificial Intelligence (AI), Blockchain, or Big Data and the coming years will see tech proliferation happening across the fields of healthcare and agriculture.
Foreign Policy
India has significantly strengthened its position internationally and this trend will not continue in the coming years.
