BJP's popularity on the upswing in TS: Laxman

Hyderabad: Pointing out the BJP's decent performance in the recent Lok Sabha elections, party's State unit president K Laxman felt that the saffron party was gaining popularity among the people of the State. He stated that the BJP had never won four MP seats in the undivided AP State in the past, which goes to show how big the victory in Telangana means.
Addressing media at the State party office in Nampally on Sunday, Laxman said his party had earned 20 per cent votes in the recent Lok Sabha elections, thanks to the love and affection showered by the people of the State on Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
He said the party, which managed to win only one Assembly seat in the Assembly elections, was able to secure 20 per cent votes and win four MP seats on its own in the State. The victory of the party was a clear result of the corruption-free rule of Narendra Modi, he felt. The senior BJP leader said the saffron party emerged as world's number one party by enrolling 11 crore people as its members.
He claimed that while Prime Minister Modi was trying to achieve a modern India, the party's national president Amit Shah was working hard to strengthen the party. He said the BJP and its allies were already ruling 18 States in the country.
The State BJP chief said his party had secured 50 per cent vote share in several States in the recent MP elections. He claimed that Modi had set the economy of the country on the right path through his note ban and GST decisions.
