BJP will emerge as single largest party in South: Amit Shah

Union Home Minister and senior BJP leader Amit Shah has exuded confidence that the party will emerge as the single largest party in the southern States, including Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and Kerala, after the Lok Sabha elections.

“After the end of three phases of polling for Lok Sabha, I can say with all authority that we are going to win more than 200 seats. The fourth phase is critical and we are receiving good reports. We are going to sweep Andhra Pradesh along with our allies and also win at least 10 seats in Telangana,” he told a press conference on Saturday.

Overall, the party is sure to win over 400 seats as the people of the country have decided to give Prime Minister Narendra Modi another term in office. “Mr. Modi will complete the third entire term and there is no confusion in the party about it,” he asserted, when asked if he was going to take over as PM mid-term.
