“The AAP lost in Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand and Goa in the recent past. And its candidates will lose deposits in all 67 seats it has contested in Himachal Pradesh. They will meet the same fate in Gujarat,” said Nadda.

“AAP will lose because it is a banner-based party which can only paste banners during the polls while we are a cadre-based party which believes in serving people,” the BJP chief said.
He also accused the Congress of shedding “crocodile tears” for Other Backward Classes and tribals.
“But it is the BJP under Prime Minister Narendra Modi which has actually changed your condition on the ground. It was Modi who made an Adivasi woman the President of this country for the first time,” he said.
“Congress always played politics with the OBCs. Though several commissions were formed, nothing happened. It was Modi who gave constitutional status to the National OBC Commission,” he added.

Three BJP leaders booked under SC/ST Act in Gujarat
Three BJP leaders have been booked under the SC-ST (Prevention of Atrocities Act) in Dabhoi town in Vadodara.
Vadodara Rural Deputy Superintendent of police (ST/SC cell) Aakash Patel said a tribal youth (Dharmesh Tadvi)in his complaint on Monday evening alleged that these leaders intentionally insulted, voluntarily caused hurt and made casteist remarks against him.
Tadvi said that elected BJP leaders of Dabhoi municipal corporation — Biren Shah, Vishal and Amit Solanki –have given him money for electric and other repair work of street lights.
Unhappy with the amount paid for the work, Dharmesh Tadvi approached the BJP tribal cell president Mehulbhai Tadvi, who asked him to return the money.
When Dharmesh Tadvi approached Biren Shah to return the payment, one of the complainant’s friend was recording it, which angered Shah.
Shah thrashed Dharmesh Tadvi and threatened him that once the Assembly elections are over, he will not allow him to run his business on road side and remove his vegetable cart.
