New Delhi: Even before the results of the 17th Lok Sabha elections are out, BJP is preparing for its grand victory celebration. The party, particularly its Delhi unit, is preparing about 350 kilogram of laddoos and special 10 laddoo-cakes. The 350 kg laddoos will represent the party’s “Mission 350”, a target set by the party to win 350 seats on its own in the polls. The party has also asked the neighbouring state units to send their workers for a victory procession at the BJP’s national headquarters on Thursday evening. Prime Minister Narendra Modi will be delivering his victory speech at the BJP headquarters at about 7 pm.
