New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi has said he would like to win the confidence of people by his action rather than his speeches.

"If I can win the confidence of the people of India, not from my speeches but by actions, then the power of 1.25 billion Indians will come together to take the country forward," Modi said in an interview on Sunday.

When asked what he would like people to say about his achievements in the first year in office, he said, "The biggest thing is that the people of the country have faith. That trust should never break. The public should have faith that this is the government they elected, and it's trying to work for their welfare with honesty and commitment. That's the biggest thing."

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) had established a simple majority on its own in the Lok Sabha in May this year. The BJP, led by Narendra Modi, won the elections with 282 seats on its own. The alliance it leads -- National Democratic Alliance (NDA) -- has 336 seats in the Lower House.

Modi had promised to the people that he would take India on the path of development and exhorted the people to give him 60 years as against 60 months that they had given the Congress.
