"We knew that we were going to form the government by an absolute majority. Modi Ji has fulfilled the promises he made to the people here. In very little time, Pushkar Singh Dhami has also formed an image of himself, so overall, there has been development," Vijaybargiya said.
"PM Modi's efforts, his special love towards Uttarakhand is visible through development. The way Pushkar (Singh Dhami) ji has gotten to the people and learned about their problems is also commendable," he further said.
Significantly, even though BJP is leading in the state, Uttarakhand CM Pushkar Singh Dhami is currently trailing by more than 2,000 votes from the Khatima constituency.
