With ‘Hung Assembly’ Threat in Goa & U’khand, CM Sawant Meets Modi in Delhi, BJP Gen Secy in Huddle in Doon
Goa Chief Minister Pramod Sawant and state BJP President Sadanand Tanawde on Tuesday met with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, sources said. The meeting came after exit poll results on Monday gave the Bharatiya Janata Party a slight edge in the state, sparking speculations of likely post-election scenarios.
Goa BJP candidates and other state leaders will also be meeting Devendra Fadnavis in Mumbai at 5 PM today, at the Garware Club House in Mumbai, sources said.
Meanwhile, BJP leaders and strategists in Uttarakhand also began internal confabulations over the possible post-poll scenarios that may emerge in the state after Uttarakhand exit poll results.
Party strategist and BJP General Secretary Kailash Vijayvargiya had arrived here on Sunday and was huddled with former Union minister Ramesh Pokhriyal Nishank at the latter’s residence to discuss how the party was likely to fare in the polls. He is likely to hold discussions with Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami and Pradesh BJP president Madan Kaushik today as well after both the Congress and the BJP were favoured by different exit polls to win the assembly polls in Uttarakhand. The ABP News-CVoter forecast an edge for the Congress in Uttarakhand, giving the party 32-38 seats in the 70-member assembly and the BJP 26-32 seats.
