While interacting with media persons, Devendra Fadnavis, Deputy Chief Minister bubbling with happiness said, “Congress may have missed out on who is the real winner. People have a lot of faith in Narendra Modi. With the transparent honesty with which he implemented the agenda of welfare for the poor, he instilled in the people the belief that the Government is truly working for the people. This result also made it clear that the people rejected the agenda of I.N.D.I.A. and Rahul Gandhi.”
“What characterises these results is that BJP’s average vote share has increased by more than 10 per cent. In Chhattisgarh, it increased by 14%, in Madhya Pradesh by 8% and even in Telangana by 7%. Out of total 639 seats in 4 states declared today. BJP won 339 seats which means it won more than 50% seats. If Congress does not come out of this mentality, nothing can be done about it. In the upcoming Lok Sabha elections, the maximum number of MPs from BJP will be elected in Telangana. The same situation will be experienced in Karnataka,” said Fadnavis with assertion.
Chandrasekhar Bawankule claimed that the sustainable development of the four pillars of women power, youth power, farmers and poor families along with the unwavering faith of the people in the leadership of Prime Minister Modi led to the victories. Bawankule told the media, “The victory is the result of Home Minister Amit Shah’s skilful strategy, BJP President J P Nadda’s organisational skills and the leadership of that state. I heartily congratulate all the workers, office-bearers who contributed to this wonderful victory. As BJP won in all the three states, it will win in Maharashtra too. 45 plus MPs, 225 plus MLAs of Mahayuti will be elected in Maharashtra. 350 plus NDA MPs will be elected in the country.”
