State BJP president Jitu Vaghani on Sunday held a meeting with BJP MLAs, civic body chiefs and district representatives of Saurashtra in Rajkot and deliberated on how the party can gain seats in the all-important region. It is noteworthy that Vaghani belongs to Bhavnagar and CM Rupani hails from Rajkot. Improving the party's tally in the forthcoming elections will be an acid test for the two top leaders of the BJP in Gujarat. Saurashtra and Kutch account for 53 Assembly seats out which BJP has its MLAs on 35 seats. BJP has set a target of winning 40-plus seats in the region, said a party source who attended the Sunday meet.
