“People of Nagpur are my family, and their love is what I earned throughout my life. Any leader who gets people’s love should take it as an honour. With the energy of this love I shall work with more enthusiasm and try to fulfill people’s dreams,” expressed Nitin Gadkari. Gadkari was speaking to mediapersons at Nagpur’s Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar International Airport on Thursday evening. He arrived after taking oath as Union Minister. He will be handling the same portfolio of Road Transport which he got in 2014. Gadkari registered third victory in a row from Nagpur Lok Sabha.
