"This time BJP will have to work on their promises because of the massive mandate given by the people. Now the electorate will answer questions from them," he told here.On being asked about the relevance of regional parties, Owaisi said, "BJP's onslaught was not stopped by Congress. So there is more importance of regional parties now. Jagan Mohan Reddy's party had won massively in Andhra Pradesh, which is also a regional party. Wherever there was Congress, BJP had claimed victory."
"BJP's strong point is nationalism, Hindu identity and the use of social media which the party had used in the general elections," he said.
Explaining his party's agenda, The AIMIM leader said, "Expanding all over India is our agenda now. At first, we want to spread to West Bengal, Bihar and Uttar Pradesh."
