Assembly polls: PM Modi likely to address BJP workers at party headquarters in evening

With the trends giving the BJP a massive lead in Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh in the Assembly polls, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is likely to address workers at the party headquarters in New Delhi on Sunday evening, party sources said. According to News 18, as of 1 pm, the BJP was leading in 161 of the 230 seats in Madhya Pradesh and in 55 of the 90 seats in Chhattisgarh. In Rajasthan, the BJP was leading in 109 of 199 seats, while the Congress was leading in Telangana on 63 seats.

BJP said people have endorsed PM Modi’s leadership and rejected the Congress’ false promises. Results show that people accept Prime Minister Modi’s “guarantee of delivering on guarantees”, Union minister and the BJP’s poll in-charge for Rajasthan Pralhad Joshi said. The BJP has been pitching “Modi’s guarantee” as a counter to the Congress’ plank of welfare guarantees. With inputs from agencies
