"BJP remains prepared for elections 24/7...": BJP MP Gulam Ali Khatana
New Delhi, March 15
BJP MP Gulam Ali Khatana on Sunday said the Bhartiya Janata Party is prepared for the elections and is committed to the interest of the people 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
"The BJP remains prepared for elections 24 hours a day, seven days a week, in the interest of the people. Whether they are general elections, assembly elections, or panchayat elections, we are always ready, and our people are always working," he stated to ANI.
Meanwhile, BJP MP K Sudhakar said that the Bhartiya Janata Party serves the nation rather than preparing for the elections, further exuding confidence that the party will emerge victorious in Assam, Puducherry, and Tamil Nadu.
Whatever announcement the Election Commission makes for the country, we are ready. The BJP party does not prepare for elections; we serve the country. We are confident that we will win in Assam again, and there is a good possibility of the NDA's victory in Puducherry as well. There is an NDA wave in Tamil Nadu," he said.
BJP MP Saumitra Khan echoed a similar sentiment and said, "This time, the results will be good. We will perform well in all five. We will also form the government."
BJP MP Kamlesh Paswan noted, "The BJP is always ready for elections. Our workers are on the ground. The elections will be in favour of the BJP."
The Election Commission of India is likely to announce the schedule of elections in poll-bound states and a Union Territory (UT) today. The poll body has convened a press conference at 4 pm.
Assembly elections are set to be held in West Bengal, Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Assam and Puducherry.
The Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of the voters' lists in these four states and one union territory has already been conducted, with final electoral rolls published.

As an observer, the messaging seems a bit mixed. One MP says they are always prepared for elections, another says they don't prepare, they serve. Which is it? Clarity in communication is important for any party.
The ground-level BJP workers are indeed very active. In my colony in Assam, they are constantly engaging with people, understanding issues. This kind of continuous connection, not just during polls, is what builds trust. 👍
Confident words, but Tamil Nadu is a different ball game. The Dravidian parties have a strong base. Saying there's an "NDA wave" feels like wishful thinking unless they have a very strong local alliance and narrative.
Being election-ready is one thing, but the focus should remain on serving. I appreciate MP Sudhakar's point. Let the work speak for itself. The victory in Assam shows development work is being recognized.
All parties say they are ready. What matters is the manifesto and concrete plans for these states. West Bengal especially needs a clear vision for peace and prosperity after so much political violence. Hope all parties focus on that.
