"We do not do development of India just for votes. Those who voted for us or not voted for us.. the Modi government does not discriminate based on caste, creed, religion or sex. We do justice to all. We give benefits to the eligible beneficiaries without seeing what political colour he/she has," Javadekar told a press conference here.
