Paying tributes to Jan Sangh ideologue Deendayal Upadhyaya, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday asked if politicians today can change Indian politics by following his ideals.

"Through our thinking and conduct, can we change people's perception towards politicians? Can we become symbols of the ideals of Pandit Deendayal?" Modi said in his address at the Bharatiya Janata Party's National Council meeting here.

He said that Upadhyaya gave the mantra that the Indian politics should be rooted in Indian culture.
