”Modiji is an icon and the face of development across communities and regions,” Naqvi told IANS.
”When he fights from an important state like Uttar Pradesh, it sends out a new wave of energy and enthusiasm throughout the country.
”It is celebration Holi before Holi for (party) workers in UP. They are jubilant and happy.”
Lakshmikant Bajpayee, the Uttar Pradesh BJP chief, said it was “very fortunate for us that Modi is fighting from Uttar Pradesh even though he is from Gujarat.
”He will get elected from UP and become the prime minister. This decision has infused the (party) workers with renewed energy.”
