"I'll get success": BJP's Chintamani Maharaj on contesting from Chhattisgarh's, Surguja in LS polls

Ambikapur: After the Bharatiya Janata Party announced the defector from Congress Chinatmani Maharaj from the Surguja constituency in Chhattisgarh, he assured that he would remain in the party and said that he would win the Lok Sabha elections.
The Chhattisgarh BJP MLA told ANI that 'Modi ki guarantee' is the biggest issue that they will take to the people across the state.
"Party has trusted me. The way people are showering love and affection it seems I'll get the success. Due to certain situations at that time, I have gone there (in Congress) but now I am back home (BJP) Now we have to live here and work as well. Lok Sabha elections are held at the entire country level and Legislative Assembly elections are held at the state level. Whatever issue the Centre's narrative decides, we will go among the people on the same basis. Modi Ji's guarantee is the biggest issue. All the workers together will make it successful. Our workers do the work of taking our schemes to the masses," Chinatamani said.
In his post on X, Chinatamani expressed his gratitude for his selection from the Surguja seat.
