"BJP has reached a mark in the history of Indian politics because of our selfless party workers who have given their sweat and blood for the party," he added.

He also credited former party presidents including, Atal Bihari Vajpayee, LK Advani and Murli Manohar Joshi who has been "helping the party to reach new heights."

"From the advent itself, our BJP party worker was dreaming of the opportunity to form a government at the centre with an absolute majority," said the senior BJP leader.
