Jaipur (Rajasthan) [India], June 2 (ANI): Haryana Election Incharge and former Rajasthan BJP chief Satish Poonia on Sunday said that if the BJP-led NDA secures 395 seats, the opposition might celebrate the fact that the BJP fell short of 5 seats to win 400 seats. However, for the BJP-NDA, it would be good news as they would exceed their previous score.
"I think this '400 paar' slogan was coined by keeping a goal in mind. If we get 395 seats, the opposition might rejoice that we fell 5 seats short. But for BJP-NDA, it will be good news that we will exceed our last score," he told ANI.
Poonia also expressed confidence in the BJP's victory in the 2024 Lok Sabha polls in Haryana and Rajasthan.
"I am confident that the BJP will get all 10 seats in Haryana...I am also confident that we will win all seats in Rajasthan," he added.
