The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Friday expressed confidence it would win four of the five states that are going to polls in November-December.
"We are keen and prepared for the polls and we are totally confident the atmosphere in the nation is in favour of the BJP," spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi said here.
"In Chhattisgarh and Madhya Pradesh we will come back in power, and in Rajasthan and Delhi we will get the mandate against the poor performance of the incumbent governments," he said.
Asked about the issues for the polls, he said: "It will be state issues mostly but, of course, national issues will have a bearing."
