Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday asked BJP members to learn from mistakes of the parties which ruled the country for long but were in "terminal decline" now, and stressed the party's goal was to take India from "tushtikaran (appeasement) to "triptikaran" (fulfilment).
In his speech at the final session of the two-day BJP national executive meeting here, Modi called upon party workers to strive to make India "shreshtha" (great) and emphasised on qualities such as restraint, balanced outlook and coordination among them.
The prime minister, who has often accused opposition parties of practising appeasement politics, said the BJP's goal should be to take the country from "tushtikaran" to "triptikaran". "This will lead to 'sabka vikas' (development of all)."
