'Defeat of BJP in Delhi polls is certain'

Jammu, Feb 8: Congress leader Ghulam Nabi Azad on Feb 7 said that there was no wave of Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the country and BJP's defeat in Delhi polls was imminent.

"I will not say how many seats Congress will win (in Delhi polls). But defeat of BJP is certain," Azad told reporters here tonight after being elected to Rajya Sabha from Jammu and Kashmir.

"The downfall of BJP has started from head that is Jammu and Kashmir and after that in Delhi. It will percolate down to the South. There was no Modi wave. It was artificial wave," he added.
