Bhubaneswar: BJD leader VK Pandian has said that BJD Will Win Minimum 24 Seats in Phase-1 Assembly Polls Voting completed in 28 Assembly & 4 Lok Sabha seats in Phase-1 yday
“BJD is sweeping the elections whether it is first, second, third or fourth round. To be precise, in the first round, BJD is winning a minimum of 24 seats. Last time we had got 20 seats. This time, there is Naveen Patnaik’s wave, so we should be winning more than 24 seats out of 28 seats. In two seats, there is competition with Congress and in one with BJP,” he told the media.
Pandian said the BJD will do much better in Lok Sabha than last time. “Lok Sabha is too huge to predict.”
Polling was held for four Lok Sabha seats, Berhampur, Kalahandi, Nabarangpur and Koraput along with 28 Assembly constituencies under them. These seats recorded 74% voter turnout in the first phase.
