 New Delhi, Aug 09, 2014: The outgoing party president says that he is satisfied with his tenure as BJP chief.

Amit Shah’s dedication to the party cannot be questioned, he says.

People might have doubts regarding nomination of Amit Shah as party chief. In the history of UP, BJP won thumping victory on 71 out of 80 seats in UP while two went to a BJP ally and the credit goes to Shah, Singh says.

Shah further says that BJP and Left parties have cadre and are ideology-based while Congress lacks both.

He says that the party emerged as the single largest party in the recent Lok Sabha polls under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

While addressing the meeting, Home Minister Rajnath Singh congratulates party workers for BJP’s victory.
