"We are watching enthusiasm and love of the people for BJP during our campaigning for some time now. People have created a wave-like effect for BJP in Jammu and Kashmir," the Union Health Minister added.

Nadda said whether it was Jammu, Leh in Ladakh or Srinagar in Kashmir valley, people were "reposing faith in the lotus and moving towards the party".

"The faith of people in BJP, have strengthened our endeavor and resolve to meet the target and form the government in the state. ...The party needs to consolidate its gains that have been speedily achieved during campaigning," the minister said.
