63-year-old Modi also declared that he would leave no stone unturned to oust Congress from power in the Centre.
"Spoke to Advani ji on the phone. He gave me his blessings. Honoured and extremely grateful to receive his blessings," Modi tweeted minutes after he was appointed by BJP as chairman of its campaign committee for the 2014 Lok Sabha elections.
"Senior leaders have reposed faith in me. We will leave no stone unturned for Congress-Mukt Bharat Nirman. Thanks for support & blessings," Modi said.
Advani had stayed away from the National Executive meeting in Goa where the decision was taken.
