January 09, 2017 16:19
Rajeev Sharma informs us: Prime Minister Narendra Modi is learnt to have told BJP leaders at the closed door session of the January 6-7 BJP national executive meeting in New Delhi that the BJP will win at least 275 seats in the Uttar Pradesh assembly election.
The UP assembly has 403 seats.
Modi told the meeting of former BJP presidents, party chief ministers and around 350 party members that the people of UP had wholeheartedly welcomed and supported his demonetisation scheme, which will be translated into votes in the state election.
Knowledgeable sources said the prime minister made it clear that he would brook no intervention from any quarters in the BJP's ongoing elections campaign as he is personally leading the campaign and knew what was the best for the party.
BJP insiders are flummoxed by Modi's assertion of the party winning at least 275 of the 403 seats.
