Modi march in Delhi

Traffic police have issued an advisory ahead of a victory procession scheduled in the capital, set to be led by BJP prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi, on Saturday. The march, starting at IGI airport, will end at the party's 11, Ashoka Road office. En route, Modi will stop at four places to meet his supporters. 

As he reached the party headquarters, Modi was showered with rose petals amid chants of his name by supporters. Party president Rajnath Singh and senior leader Nitin Gadkari were also present at 11, Ashoka Road in central Delhi.

"This victory is dedicated to the sacrifices of generations of loyal party workers who have been working tirelessly since 1952. It's the fruit of their blessings, prayers and hard work," Modi said.

The chief minister of Gujarat, who has never held national office, is set to drive from the airport to his party's headquarters in central New Delhi with supporters gathering along the route.

The BJP won the first majority in Parliament for 30 years on Friday after a campaign by Modi focused on delivering new jobs, development and clean government.

The triumph redrew India's political map, handing him a huge mandate for change, and heaping humiliation on the ruling Gandhi political dynasty.
