    Nadda mocks Congress, AAP; Says no 3-way contest in Himachal
    Nadda said that the party's focus remains women's empowerment, developing infrastructure and employment for youths in the state

    While Himachal Pradesh is voting on Saturday to decide the course of next government, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) National President JP Nadda stated that there was no three-way battle in the state polls. "There's nothing like a three-cornered contest in Himachal. Parties like AAP contested several polls, including UP and Goa. They are contesting polls for 67 seats but can win none," Nadda said.

    Jai Ram Thakur will become Himachal CM: Nadda

    Nadda, while assuring that Jai Ram Thakur will be the chief minister if the BJP wins, added that the party's focus remains women's empowerment, developing infrastructure and employment for youths in the state. The single-phase polling for the assembly elections kicked off on Saturday after campaigning came to a close on Thursday evening, with all parties making comprehensive efforts to woo the voters.

    Nadda, after casting his vote at a polling booth in Bilaspur's Vijaypur, said that he feels that the people of Himachal have great "zeal". "With the kind of atmosphere I'm seeing since morning, I think people have zeal and that zeal is over something right. I request people to cast vote in large numbers," the BJP chief said.

    After Nadda's comments, Union Minister Anurag Thakur told India Today that the BJP did good work under CM Thakur's leadership in the past five years in the state. He also pointed out that the saffron brigade gained power in Manipur, Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh, and Goa yet again. The same will happen in Gujarat and Himachal Pradesh as well.

    Looking back at 2017 Himachal elections!

    During the 2017 polls, the BJP bagged 44 out of 68 seats in the state, with the Congress winning 21 seats. Besides these two big national parties, the Arvind Kejriwal-led Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) also hopes to cement its foothold in the Himalayan state.

    BJP promises to bring in UCC

    On November 6, Nadda announced that the BJP would implement the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) in Himachal if the saffron brigade is voted back to power. The Uniform Civil Code refers to a rule that is identical across the country. Every religion in India currently has its own laws it follows regarding matters like marriage, divorce, adoption, and succession.
