“Come and talk to me later this evening if you doubt what I say,” Mehta said when this correspondent asked her if she was going over the board in her assessment.
Echoing what India’s Prime Minister-in-waiting Narendra Modi has been repeating ad nauseam in his elections speeches Mehta said, “Yeh maa-bete ki sarkaar toh gayi (We have put an end to the misrule of Congress’ mother-son duo of Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi).”
Meanwhile, celebrations continue unabated at the party headquarters as more and more supporters keep streaming in to join the big party being underway at 11, Ashoka Road.
“All the roads in India’s capital are leading towards our party headquarters,” Mehta said before she made her way into the premises to soak in the festive atmosphere.
Mehta said that BJP general secretary Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi has been holding fort at the party headquarters even as senior political leaders are on their way there.
