Union Minister Anurag Thakur said that the seventh phase of the Lok Sabha elections is about taking the seat tally of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) beyond 400.
He said that the BJP under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi facilitated the approval and initiation of the medical college project in Jolsappad.
After four phases of elections, it has become clear that the public has cast their vote for a stable and honest government that of Modi government, he asserted.
Varinder Singh Kanwar, 60, filed his papers as a covering candidate for Anurag Thakur.
He said no matter how much Congress leaders sing in praise of Pakistan, the neighbouring country has no capacity to threaten India in any way.
