As the results for Haryana started to firm up, BJP leader Shehzad Poonawalla on Tuesday, speaking to ANI asserted that the BJP is set to form the government in Haryana for the third consecutive time, indicating strong public support for the party's work.
"I think whatever the results are, it is clear that this is a victory of EVM, Election Commission and India's democratic traditions. I hope that those who were celebrating after seeing the exit polls will not blame EVM after seeing the exact polls. Our government has been formed twice in Haryana and is going to be formed for the third time... In both places, the BJP is going to form the government with a clear majority, this shows how people have expressed faith in the work of BJP," he said. Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Saini was also confident that the final reults would be in favour of the BJP. "BJP has worked a lot for the development of Haryana in the past ten years...BJP has worked with honesty for all sections of the society...Our government will continue to work for the development of Haryana and BJP will be forming the government in Haryana for the third time...BJP worked with honesty whereas Congress did a lot of corruption," he said. Senior Party leader Anil Vij who is contesting from Ambala Cantt said the Congress is celebrating as many want Bhupinder Hooda to loose. "BJP is leading in the elections and they (Congress) are celebrating because many people in the Congress party want Bhupinder Singh Hooda to lose the elections...I will accept the mandate of the public. If the high command wants, I will be the Chief Minister," he said. According to Election Commission data at 10 am the BJP was ahead in 43 seats while the Congress was ahead in 34 seats. EC data showed that for most constituencies between 1 to 4 rounds of counting had been complete by 10 AM. (ANI)
