"BJP is that bank which stands for progress and development. If you cast your vote to it (BJP) you will get interest in the form of development," Fadnavis said in Chiplun nearly 250 kms from Mumbai where he attended an election campaign.
The chief minister, in his typical style, also warned voters against exercising franchise in favour of Congress, NCP and Shiv Sena stating that "bankrupt" banks do not give any returns.
The chief minister also spelled out development works carried out by the BJP government in last two years and explained various schemes started by the party for the welfare of poor.
The first phase of Zilla Parishad polls will be held on February 16.
