New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday said that his government has only one religion 'India first'.

"The country can run only within the constitution and law. No one can take law in their hands and discriminate on the grounds of religion," Prime Minister Modi said.

"We believe in Unity. All communities need to unite to fight against terror," he added.

Prime Minister Modi, who was replying to the debate on President Pranab Mukherjee's address in the Lok Sabha, also drew the attention of the parliamentarians to the bomb explosions that rocked Patna's Gandhi Maidan hours before his Hunkar rally in 2013.

"When I was in Patna in 2013, the bomb blasts took place. I had asked then, 'who does a Hindu have to fight with, Muslims or poverty'. Both need to unite to fight against terror," he said.

Five persons were killed and 83 others got injured in multiple blasts that rocked Patna's Gandhi Maidan.

Prime Minister Modi further said colour of the flag does not guide the governance, and added that it is the tricolour that guides our work.

Facing resistance on land bill, PM Modi expressed readiness to make changes in the proposed legislation as he reached out to opposition for support, saying they should shed politics and not make it a prestige issue.

"We should not have ego that there can be nothing better than what we did. When you passed the Land Act (in 2013), we stood shoulder to shoulder with you. We knew that you want to take political mileage out of it. Still we stood by you," he told Congress in the Lok Sabha.

Modi, who was replying to a debate on the Motion of Thanks to the President's address, said his government wanted to make changes in the Land Act passed during the UPA tenure because all the Chief Ministers had said it was against farmers' interest and hampered development and infrastructure creation.

"...When our government was formed, CMs of all parties said in one voice: Please think about farmers, they want irrigation and infrastructure. You made such a law which is against farmers' interest.

"Are we so arrogant that we will ignore the voice of CMs in a federal structure? Can we ignore farmers interest? Is it not our responsibility to correct the mistake, if any?

Whatever you have done, we are not rejecting it. Do not weigh this in the balance of politics," he said.

Seeking the support of opposition in the passage of the bill, which he claimed was in farmers' interests, he said, "If you feel there are still any shortcomings, I am ready for any changes in it... Don't make it an issue of your prestige.

He said there should be no ego and all parties should work together to correct the mistakes in the previous act. His expression of readiness to make changes in the proposed new Land Acquisition bill comes against the backdrop of opposition by some allies as well as opposition parties.

The new bill is aimed at amending the law passed over a year back.
