New Delhi [India], October 8 (ANI): As the BJP approaches the majority mark and edges towards a hat-trick in the Haryana Assembly, Union Minister Giriraj Singh praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi, stating that "one Modi outweighs everyone combined," and that the people of Haryana have taught Congress leader Rahul Gandhi a lesson.
"We are witnessing the results: 'Ek Modi sab par bhaari'... The people of Haryana have made him (Rahul Gandhi) learn a lesson. They trusted PM Modi, not Rahul Gandhi's statements. All the farmers and wrestlers are with us," said the Union Minister.
Criticising Rahul Gandhi and the Congress party for supporting the National Conference, Giriraj Singh added, "We have defeated the Congress in J&K as well. They are nowhere near the BJP... He (Rahul Gandhi) supported Farooq Abdullah, the same Farooq Abdullah who speaks about Kashmir and bringing back Article 370. Be it Haryana or Jammu and Kashmir, I want to thank the people in both."
According to the latest update on the Election Commission website, BJP candidates are leading in 48 of the 90 Assembly seats in Haryana, while Congress is leading in 37 seats.
In Jammu and Kashmir, the latest update shows that candidates of the NC-Congress alliance are either leading or have won 48 of the 90 seats, while BJP candidates are leading or have won 29.
Meanwhile, former Haryana Chief Minister and Congress candidate Bhupinder Singh Hooda, who retained his stronghold in the Garhi Sampla-Kiloi Assembly constituency, remained optimistic about his party's victory in the Haryana Assembly polls.
"According to the information I have, we are nearing the majority. Congress is reaching the majority. We have won several seats, but they are yet to be updated..." Hooda told reporters as the Election Commission continued posting results from the vote count, which began at 8 am today.
"I've heard that counting has been stopped in several places. We are getting the majority... This is like a game--sometimes the ball is here, sometimes there--but we will score the final goal," Hooda said. (ANI)
