The Bharatiya Janata Party's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi has a big hand in the party's win in Rajasthan, party leader Vasundhara Raje said Sunday, as the BJP headed to a landslide victory here.
"There is a big hand of Narendra Modi in the victory of Rajasthan. The people of Rajasthan wanted to see the same development as in Gujarat," Vasundhara Raje told reporters here.
"This is just the semi-final of what is going to happen shortly in the general elections," added Raje.
She also said that people were tired of the Congress in the state and so they voted for the BJP.
The BJP was leading in 137 of the 171 constituencies where leads were available till 12 noon. The ruling Congress was leading only in 32 constituencies.
