NEW DELHI: Expressing confidence about his party coming back to power in 2019 Lok Sabha polls, BJP president Amit Shah said Sunday his party will rule the country for the next 50 years.

"Amit Shah said the party will win the 2019 elections because of its performance and then no one can dethrone the BJP for the next 50 years," senior BJP leader Ravi Shankar Prasad told reporters here quoting the party president at the national executive meet of the party.

Prasad said the projection is based on the work and achievement of the party-ruled government at the Centre and not arrogance.

"The politics of the county is now progressing towards performance and hope," he said quoting Shah.

He said since Narendra Modi became the chief minister of Gujarat in 2001, the party has never lost an election and continues to remain in power in the state because of the BJP's performance.

Earlier in the day, the BJP projected the Lok Sabha polls as a battle between a "daydreaming" opposition and its alliance whose leader Narendra Modi has an "approval rating" of over 70 per cent and is set to build a "new India" by 2022.

The political resolution passed by the national executive of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) said while the prime minister is building an India of "no poverty, casteism, corruption and communalism", the sole agenda of the "frustrated" opposition was "roko Modi" (stop Modi), Union minister Prakash Javadekar told reporters.

"The BJP will return to power in 2019 with more seats and votes. The opposition is daydreaming. It neither has a leader nor policy nor strategy. It only has a negative agenda of stopping Modi and people do not like negative politics," he said about the resolution.
