Except Mizoram BJP is strong in all three states: Venkaiah

Jaipur, Oct 15 (UNI) The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) today said though its position was weak in Mizoram, the party was confident of forming next governments in Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Delhi after the Assembly polls.

Talking to reporters here, party state election coordinator Venkaiah Naidu said good governance by BJP-led governments in Rajasthan, MP and Chhattisgarh, and failures of UPA Government at the Centre on various fronts, including internal security and economic front, had given the BJP a clear early lead over the Congress.

''However, in Mizoram our position is not good even then we will succeed in opening our account there and will share power with allies in the new anti-Congress Government likely to assume office after the polls'', he said.

Expressing satisfaction over poll preparation in Rajasthan, Mr Naidu said his party was ready to go to polls with blend of topical and national issues like terrorism, price hike and local issues and achievements on pro-poor welfare and development programmes of the Raje Government.

Day long deliberations were held during a series of meetings of the ruling party leaders to draw strategy and review preparations.

Mr Naidu, party general secretary Gopinath Munde, Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje, party state president Om Prakash Mathur, party sitting MPs, MLAs and state office bearers attended the meetings.

The meetings would continue tomorrow, he said.
