NCP chief Sharad Pawar on Saturday said results of the Karnataka assembly elections, where BJP was defeated, are an indication of the scenario after next year's Lok Sabha polls.
The trend in the Karnataka assembly election results will continue in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, Pawar told reporters.
Our aim was to defeat the BJP, he said.
The BJP is out of power in states like Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Rajasthan, Delhi, Jharkhand, Punjab and West Bengal, the NCP chief said.
