CHHATTISGARH CHIEF MINISTER Vishnu Deo Sai is confident that the BJP will win all 11 Lok Sabha seats in the state. According to him, Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership and the state government's achievements in the past four months will boost the victory margins this time.
Excerpts from an interview:
Q/ Can Modi's charisma lead to a clean sweep for the BJP in Chhattisgarh?
A/ Modiji's charisma was for everybody to see in the assembly elections in Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan, where the party secured magnificent wins. The people of Chhattisgarh have placed their trust in Modi in the Lok Sabha elections as well, leading to a clean sweep in Chhattisgarh.
Q/ Do you think that the BJP got an advantage by declaring its candidates in Chhattisgarh early?
A/ The BJP works with farsightedness. But the Congress often gives the appearance that its national leaders lack a clear vision or direction. No Congress leader in Chhattisgarh was keen to contest the elections for fear of losing. Even former chief minister Bhupesh Baghel had earlier declined to contest the polls.
Q/ Will your government bring back the flagship schemes of the previous BJP government?
