Singh said elections are fought not only to form government but also to build the society and country. "Government should not be run based on caste, creed and religion but should be run based on humanity," he said.

The defence minister said that "Bharat is no longer weak and the world listens carefully to what it says". "India's international stature has grown after Narendra Modi became prime minister," Singh added.
