"The natural conclusion after the Karnataka victory is that not only has our public mandate increased, the party has registered a social as well as geographical expansion," he said.

With the BJP set to form a Government for the first time on its own in a southern state, Singh said the saffron organisation has become the biggest political party in the country.

"The BJP was had so far been seen as a North Indian party. Now, we can say that the BJP is an all-India party," Singh said.

Party presdient Rajnath Singh admitted that the party may be ‘deficient’ of majority by few seats in Karnataka, but said the BJP will ‘definitely’ form the next Government.

"In Karnataka, the party may be one or two seats deficient of majority but that won't deter BJP from forming the next government," he said.

"If any party will form the Government in Karnataka, it will be none other than BJP," Singh said.

He said the BJP's victory in the Karnataka Assembly election "will continue upto the general elections".

"Today's result shows that BJP's victory will continue right up to the General elections including in the Assembly election to be held in Delhi, Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan later this year," Singh said.

He added with the party ruling in seven states while it is in coalition in another five, the BJP is poised to perform similarly in the coming elections.
