With two months to the Assembly elections in Karnataka, former Chief Minister BS Yeddiyurappa on Monday said that he will work hard to ensure Narendra Modi becomes Prime Minister again by winning the maximum number of seats in the upcoming Assembly and Lok Sabha elections.
Stating that PM Modi has confidence in him, he said, "To make sure Modi becomes PM again, we will work hard towards winning maximum seats in Karnataka assembly elections and also Lok Sabha elections," BJP leader and former Karnataka CM BS Yediyurappa said as quoted by news agency ANI.
The BJP leader is upbeat that the party will get absolute majority and form government as the public's response is in favour of the ruling government in the state. He remarked Rahul Gandhi's comments on the Democracy of India in London as "unfortunate". "It's unfortunate. No one expected Rahul Gandhi to speak about such things during his visit to other countries, particularly to London. Nobody will appreciate his statements."
Earlier on Sunday, PM Modi inaugurated IIT Dharwad and 118-km long Bengaluru-Mysuru expressway. Besides inaugurating, he also laid foundation stones for several development works in the state at a cost of Rs 16,000 crore.
