In the education section, the PM has declared that he completed his Bachelor of Arts from Delhi University in 1978 and Master of Arts from Gujarat University in 1983. He has said there are no pending criminal cases against him.
Filing his nomination from the Varanasi constituency earlier in the day, from where he is seeking a third term as MP, the Prime Minister said, "I am overwhelmed and emotional. I did not even realise how 10 years passed under the shade of your affection. 'Aaj Maa Ganga ne mujhe god le liya hai' (today, Maa Ganga has adopted me)."

Varanasi will vote in the seventh phase of the Lok Sabha election on June 1.
