Kolkata, Nov 30 (IANS) The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Wednesday reiterated that it was prepared for mid-term general elections and exuded confidence of winning over 200 parliamentary seats on its own.
‘I am not an astrologer so I can’t say when and whether the mid-term polls will be held. But I can tell you that the BJP is ready for mid-term polls,’ BJP chief Nitin Gadkari said in an informal talk with reporters here.
Gadkari said once the BJP crossed the 170-seat mark, allies will start cosying up to it.
‘Once we cross the 170-mark we will get a stream of partners and this will expand the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) which will come to power,’ Gadkari said.
