Oppn can daydream till May 23: Ram Madhav

May 20, 2019 13:38

With opposition parties citing the example of Australia federal elections in which exit polls predictions went wrong, BJP general secretary Ram Madhav on Monday mocked his rivals saying they were daydreaming.He asserted that such a situation will not arise in India and said that BJP will win a bigger mandate than what exit polls are showing.

"The Opposition can keep on dreaming day and night till May 23. By 12 pm on that day, their dream will not come true. We will wait for the exact results. But, I am confident that we will get a bigger mandate than what exit polls are showing," Madhav told ANI.

Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison's centre-right Liberal-National Coalition won the May 18 federal elections, in contrast to exit polls, which had projected a victory for the Opposition centre-left Labour Party.

While the Coalition gained 77 seats and secured a majority, Labour finished a close second with 69 seats. -- PTI
