Rohtak MP Arvind Sharma said Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar had worked for the welfare of all sections of society, including farmers, soldiers and women.

"As a result, the BJP got support from all sections of society in the Lok Sabha elections. We will also sweep the assembly polls," Sharma claimed.

After winning all 10 seats in the parliamentary elections, the BJP has started preparations for the assembly polls.
