BJP will register comprehensive victories in Gujarat and Himachal: RS Prasad

 Union Minister and senior BJP leader Ravishankar Prasad today asserted that the party will register comprehensive victories in the Assembly elections in Gujarat and Himachal Pradesh.
The law and justice, electronics and IT minister said voters have full faith in the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, during whose tenure the country has witnessed "all-round growth".

"The people of Gujarat have not forgotten the economic progress and the excellent law and order that prevailed while Modi was the chief minister. The BJP is all set to retain power in the state with a comfortable majority," he told reporters here.

The minister also expressed confidence that the BJP will "win a thumping majority in Himachal Pradesh and dislodge the Congress from power".

Counting of votes in both the states will begin on December 18.
Prasad arrived here on his way to Rohtas district, where he is scheduled to address a four-day training camp for the party's state-level office bearers that began yesterday.

"The country has witnessed all-round growth and new benchmarks of progress have been set under Modi's leadership," he said.
There has been effective action against terrorists and the PM's diplomacy has been a huge success, placing India among the strong nations of the world, he added.
