He also said that people will vote for his party in order to end the "corrupt" rule of the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM)-Congress-Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) alliance.
Mr. Chouhan is Bharatiya Janata Party's Assembly election in-charge in Jharkhand.
"I am continuously keeping a tab on Jharkhand. The way polling is going on there, BJP is getting more than two-thirds of majority in the first phase of voting," the Union Agriculture Minister told reporters after casting his vote in his native village Jait under the Budhni Assembly seat.
“Voters supporting the BJP are coming out to vote in large numbers,” he said.
"Not only BJP supporters, but common people also want a change in the regime. The people of Jharkhand will defeat the corrupt and dishonest alliance of JMM, Congress and RJD, which has supported the Bangladeshi infiltrators," Mr. Chouhan claimed.
The counsel for the government of Karnataka brought to the notice of the bench that the Central Government had some time ago issued directions to States to cancel the licences issued to private organisations ‘treating mother’s milk as ayurveda, siddha, unani drug’. A private entity, whose license was cancelled by the State Government, had challenged the order before a single judge of the High Court, and the issue is pending adjudication.
