Ahead of the assembly polls in Haryana, state minister Abhimanyu Thursday said the BJP government will present its "report card" to the people and seek votes on the basis of the development work carried out by it.
After its prodigious performance of winning all the 10 Lok Sabha seats in the state, the BJP has drawn up a strategy to bag at least 75 of the 90 seats in the assembly elections due in October.
At present, the BJP has 48 members in the state assembly. In 2014, the saffron outfit had, for the first time, formed government in the state on its own.
"In the coming assembly polls, the people of Haryana will bring us back to power with an overwhelming mandate. Soon, we will keep our report card before the people. On its basis, we are going to seek votes," Abhimanyu told reporters.
"We have tried to live up to people's expectations and have worked together like a team," he said, asserting that the people had rejected opposition parties whose "sole purpose is to grab power".
In an obvious reference to the Haryana Congress which is ridden with factionalism and the INLD that witnessed a vertical split last year following a feud in the Chautala family, the finance minister said, "Those who cannot take their own team along, how will they run the state?"
When asked about opposition parties' claim that the issues for the upcoming assembly polls would be different from those raised in the general elections, Abhimanyu replied, "They can daydream..."
Replying to a question, he said, "We are going to fight the assembly polls under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Manohar Lal Khattar. We are fighting like a team and the people are with us. The opposition is in disarray and it's clear that we will once again form the next government."
