Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) President Amit Shah on Wednesday said that there was not just a wave but BJP tsunami in Himachal Pradesh.

Addressing a rally in Mandi, Shah said, "Rahul baba the writing is on the wall, BJP is coming to power in Himachal Pradesh."

Looking at the rally today, the BJP chief said, "I can confidently say that there is a BJP tsunami in Himachal, not just a wave."

The BJP and the Congress had been ruling the state alternately for close to three decades, and Dhumal was at its helm for 10 years.

On Tuesday, Prem Kumar Dhumal, who has been the Himachal Pradesh chief minister twice, was declared as BJP's chief ministerial candidate by Shah.

Dhumal had been spearheading the party's campaign in the state since 1998 assembly polls. He led it to victory in 1998 and 2007 but lost in 2003 and 2012.

Himachal Pradesh goes to polls on November 9 and results would be declared on December 18.

Meanwhile, the ruling Congress released its manifesto, promising to strengthen the farm sector by granting interest-free loans to farmers, a creation of 1.50 lakh jobs in the government sector and free laptops to 50,000 college students.

Restoration of the pre-2004 pension scheme, regularisation of contract employees after two years, enhanced daily wages, social security pension and appointment of anti- corruption grievances commissioner were the other promises made in the manifesto.
