Haryana minister Anil Vij today said the alliance being stitched up by the opposition parties and other groups in Gujarat cannot defeat the BJP in the assembly polls in the western state next month.
The 'Modi wave' continues in the country and the saffron party will form government again in that state, he said.
"Even if 100 dogs join hands, they cannot challenge a lion. BJP will win the Gujarat polls," tweeted Vij, an outspoken minister in the BJP-led government in Haryana, while referring to Prime Minister Narendra Modi as a "lion".
The opposition parties and other groups which are trying to join hands in Gujarat can never defeat the ruling BJP there, he said
"The BJP will once again be victorious in the Gujarat polls," he said.
Earlier, the health minister lashed out at Congress leader Randeep Singh Surjewala for comparing Modi to the whimsical 14th-Century monarch Muhammad Bin Tughlak.
Talking to media persons in Ambala today, he said Surjewala was a "liar".
He accused Congress leaders of always leveling false allegations to divert the attention of people.
Modi has become the symbol of progress and now the India is being recognised throughout the world because of the prime minister, Vij said.
