A PM should not say lets make any state the number 1 state. Your desire should be to make ALL states excellent. You are acting like a regionalist by saying that Mr. Singh.

Very True... Just by making Punjab#1, India can not be on top. He should have told "One of the best States" rather then #1.

Hi Raghavendra,
If a teacher motivates its student to get a no 1 rank, it does not mean he is favoring the student. Similarly if all states strive to be the best it develops an enviornment of healthy competition which is good for the entire country. Pls dont link it regionism.

the problem is that I have never heard the PM say this to other states. It is not unnatural expect some regionalism in every Indian, including the PM. The only person who I have seen with no regionalism is Kalam
