Bandaru sees NDA wave

By Our Staff Reporter

VIJAYAWADA, APRIL 24. The Bharatiya Janata Party is poised to win 14 of the 17 Assembly seats it contested in the first phase of elections, according the Union Minister of State for Urban Development and Poverty Alleviation, Bandaru Dattatreya.

Addressing a press conference here on Saturday, Mr. Dattatreya said that the party would win four of the five Lok Sabha seats for which elections were held on Tuesday. He said the party would win the fifth Lok Sabha seat also with a bit of luck, and the NDA would bag 350 seats in the Lok Sabha. "There is a wave in favour of the NDA. People are determined to vote for the BJP-TDP alliance. There is no anti-incumbency factor against the NDA or the TDP,'' he said. The Congress was in trouble because of its association with the TRS. "How can Sonia Gandhi share a platform with K. Chandrasekhar Rao who wanted blood to flow instead of water in the irrigation projects of Coastal Andhra,'' he asked.
