New Delhi: As the Lok Sabha exit polls 2024 predicted thumping victory for the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA), setting a stage for Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led coalition to regain power at the Centre, Union Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia, in an exclusive conversation with Republic Media Network’s Editor-in-Chief Arnab Goswami on Sunday, lauded PM Modi, saying it is under his dynamic and able leadership that "India has grown in the last decade and that "exit polls are a reflection of it".

Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader and Union Minister of Civil Aviation and Steel, Jyotiraditya Scindia, while speaking to Arnab Goswami, a day ahead of the counting of votes for Lok Sabha Elections 2024, took on the Opposition’s INDI Alliance leaders dubbing the bloc as “group of Thugs”.

Scindia said, “140 crore Indians are with Narendra Modi ji. INDI Alliance is a group of thugs. They have come together to loot the nation.”

When asked, what if the Congress again resorts to the same tactics of blaming the EVMs, if they lose the elections, the BJP Rajya Sabha MP lambasted the Congress saying, “There is major difference in what they say and what they actually do. When they win the Himachal elections, Karnataka elections, Telangana elections, all remains okay for them. But, as soon as they lose an election, they come up with the same rhymes of blaming EVMs.”
