The BJP has been pitching "Modi's guarantee" as a counter to the Congress' plank of welfare guarantees.
Mr. Joshi, who holds the Parliamentary Affairs portfolio in the Union Cabinet, said if the Opposition disrupted Parliament's upcoming Winter session starting Monday, it would face worse results than what has come now.
On when the name of the new Chief Minister of Rajasthan would be decided, Mr. Joshi said it would happen "very soon and smoothly".
BJP leader from Rajasthan and Union Minister Arjun Ram Meghwal said Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot's 'magic' had not worked in the desert State.
On the poll results in Telangana where the Congress was set to emerge victorious, Mr. Joshi said the party benefited from anti-incumbency against the BRS and that the BJP needed to grow further there.
