Congratulating BJP and National Democratic Alliance candidates for their victory in by-polls in several states, the BJP chief Jagat Prakash Nadda said the party was committed to the overall development of the common man under leadership of PM Modi.
As BJP won Karnataka's Sindgi Assembly seat with a margin of over 30,000 votes in the bypolls, former Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa said the party had not expected to win by such a large margin.
Brisk polling was witnessed in the byelections to the Hangal and Sindgi Assembly seats in north Karnataka Saturday. While Hangal recorded 83.72% polling, it was 69.41% in Sindgi, said reports.
