BJP strikes gold with Satish Poonia in Rajasthan
The Sunday Guardian|October 20, 2024
The impressive and spectacular victory in Haryana has not just left everyone stunned but also has revitalised and reinvigorated the BJP.

This success has also helped the party identify a strong Jat leader in Satish Poonia. BJP is likely to gain from this momentum in other states as well.

By securing a third consecutive term in Haryana, BJP has sent a clear message to the nation that its workers remain dedicated and persistent in their efforts to win until the very end.

The party has expressed confidence in its future prospects. BJP has shown its confidence in Nayab Singh Saini by reappointing him as Chief Minister of Haryana.

The opposition that had reaffirmed its landslide victory, has now understood and accepted that they were not able to crack BJP's strategy. No matter how many excuses Congress makes to justify its defeat, senior party leaders are beginning to quietly acknowledge that mistakes were made. The truth is gradually coming to light.

While BJP capitalised on Congress's overconfidence and worked diligently at the grassroots level, the party's workers effectively communicated with the public, helping to counteract anti-incumbency sentiments.

Top leaders played a crucial role in this remarkable victory. Alongside the Sangh, prominent figures such as Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah, and BJP National President J.P.

Nadda contributed to the party's success. Among these leaders, Poonia also stands out. When Poonia was appointed as the election in-charge for Haryana during the Lok Sabha elections, his appointment raised eyebrows. Despite the challenging circumstances, Poonia managed to secure victories in half of the seats, helping BJP win five out of 10 seats.
