Ahead of the counting of votes in Jammu and Kashmir, BJP state unit president Ravinder Raina performed a 'yagya' on Tuesday morning and expressed confidence the party would secure a majority and form a government, potentially with the support of Independents.
"I firmly believe that the BJP, along with its alliance partners and Independent candidates, will form the government in Jammu and Kashmir. The BJP is expected to win 30-35 seats, with an additional 15 Independent candidates and other like-minded groups likely to succeed," Raina, the BJP candidate from Nowshera, told reporters.
He conducted the yagya for the party's victory in the assembly elections. "Together, we will secure a majority with more than 50 seats and establish the government in Jammu and Kashmir," he said.
