of around 15,000 BJP workers at Dr Shyama Prasad Mukherjee Stadium that he had conversed with Parrikar over phone and the latter had inquired about the Karnataka polls.
"When I called him (Parrikar), just after initial 'namaskar' he asked me about the Karnataka elections. Despite being in the USA for treatment, Parrikar is concerned about the party, which is a symbol of a true worker," Shah said.
"I told Parrikarji to take care of his health. I told him that the BJP will have full majority in Karnatka and that we will form the government on the evening of May 15," he said.
