 "No single person can win or lose election for a party: BJP")
"During Lok Sabha election I was BJP's Gujarat in-charge. There should be no misconception. No single person helps a party win or lose an election. You (media) have hyped him unnecessarily," BJP's national vice-president and Uttar Pradesh in-charge Om Mathur said.
Kishor had successfully managed Narendra Modi's campaign in Lok Sabha polls and Nitish Kumar in Bihar Assembly elections from behind the scene.

Noting that his two-day visit to Uttar Pradesh was from "organisational point of view," Mathur said in next two-three months the party would take steps to make people aware of the highlights of the Central Budget and the major programmes launched by the NDA government for people's welfare.
To a question if the BJP-led NDA government failed to highlight its works, he said an outreach programme was necessary as debates on contentious issues like the JNU row were going on.
Regarding nomination of a new state president, he said it would be done soon. "The present state president is already working," Mathur said.
He said BJP would not project anyone as the chief ministerial candidate in UP polls.
