Sanchari Bhattacharya reports from the Jaipur Lit Fest: Speaking on Bharatiya Janata Party's PM candidate Narendra Modi at the Jaipur Lit Fest on Monday, senior leader Yashwant Sinha said, in a few months, he will become the prime minister of the country.  

 

On BJP's chances in the upcoming Lok Sabha polls, the former finance minister also said that out of the 340 seats in India where they have a presence, BJP will win in 300 of them.   "I don't mean any disrespect to anyone, but the head of our government has contested only one election, which he lost and never went back. You cannot run a government like this, via surrogacy,' he said.  

 

On whether Muslims will vote for BJP in the LS polls, Sinha said, "I have tried to reach out to all communities. Yes, misunderstandings remain and we are trying to remove them. But that or another issue cannot stop the BJP from comuing to power this time'.
