AHMEDABAD: Senior BJP leader L K Advani on Sunday said he wants Gujarat to be the best state and Ahmedabad the number one city of the country.
"Since independence our aim was to make India one of the best countries in the world, and that has become possible. I always wanted Gujarat to be the best state in the country and Ahmedabad its best city," Advani said.
"I am proud that I have represented you people who have loved me and supported me for so many years," the leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha said addressing a function organised by the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC) in the Ellisbridge area which is part of his Lok Sabha constituency here.
Advani told the people that this could be the last time he is representing them as the new delimitation rules will be effective from the next general elections.
"There is a distinct possibility that the Ellisbridge area will not be in the Gandhinagar constituency once the new delimitation rules are implemented," he said. "So, may be this will be the last time I am able to represent you," he added.
Earlier in the day, he visited the Dariyalal-Jhulelal temple in Gandhinagar to participate in a programme organised by the local Sindhi community. He also inaugurated a mobile library for students.
