"Let us think big. Let us think far. Let us think above politics," Modi said while addressing NDA MPs at a post-Diwali high tea hosted by him at his residence.
All Shiv Sena MPs including Union Heavy Industries Minister Anant Geete were present at the event, as suspense continued over whether the Uddhav Thackeray-led party will be part of the BJP-led government in Maharashtra.
The Prime Minister, who also talked about the recently launched Swachh Bharat Abhiyaan, said the initiative has received tremendous response from all sections of society and called upon all NDA MPs to connect with people as they undertake efforts in this regard for Swachh Bharat in their areas.
This, he said, would send a positive message.
