BJP will win more seats in 2024 LS polls than in 2019: Tejasvi Surya
Meerut (UP) (PTI): Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha (BJYM) president Tejasvi Surya claimed on Tuesday that the BJP will get more seats in next year's Lok Sabha polls compared to the 2019 general election.
He also said the "double-engine" government led by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has changed the face of Uttar Pradesh.
Addressing a BJYM convention in Meerut, Surya said, "The BJP will get more seats in the 2024 polls than in 2019 and (Prime Minister Narendra) Modiji will score a hat-trick for a third innings."
The member of Parliament from Bangalore South also alleged that before 2014, when the Modi government came to power, there was a misrule in the country, adding that nine years of the Modi government have proved to be more effective than the 70 previous years. People's welfare is the topmost priority of this government, he said.
Surya said the "double-engine" government has changed the face of Uttar Pradesh, adding that thanks to Prime Minister Modi and Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, the law-and-order scenario of the state has also improved.
"Double engine" is a term often used by BJP leaders to refer to the saffron party being in power at the Centre as well as in a state.
Surya said under Modi's leadership, India has got respect at the global stage, which is only increasing.
The prime minister is trying to take the country to new heights, he added.

Chikkamagaluru: Wild elephant tosses man sleeping in coffee plantation
Chikkamagaluru: A wild elephant attacked a farmer sleeping in a coffee plantation near Hukkunda village in the Allur area of Chikkamagaluru district on Sunday morning.
Narayan Gowda, the farmer, was guarding coffee beans spread out for drying when the elephant lifted him with its trunk and tossed him aside. Fortunately, he landed on a pile of hay nearby, avoiding severe injuries. He sustained minor injuries and was admitted to a hospital.
The locals immediately informed the Forest Department officials, who rushed to the spot and took necessary action.
With increasing incidents of wild elephant menace in the region, villagers have urged the authorities to relocate the elephants to a different area.
