"PM Modi Doesn't Need Validation Of Cosy Clubs In Lutyens": Smriti Irani

Smriti Irani said PM Modi never got votes for 'maintaining the status quo' and he does not need the validation of 'cosy clubs in Lutyens', as he has the support of crores of Indians who elected him to office.

Setting the tone for next year's Lok Sabha elections with the BJP seemingly on a strong footing after routing the Opposition in the key heartland states of Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh, Union Minister Smriti Irani said Prime Minister Modi was neither pursuing nor advancing a personal agenda.

In an exclusive interview with ANI, the Lok Sabha MP from Amethi said the BJP-led Centre has done enough work that could be showcased to the people going into the next general elections.

She said PM Modi never got votes for 'maintaining the status quo' and he does not need the validation of 'cosy clubs in Lutyens', as he has the support of crores of Indians who elected him to office.
