For Smriti Irani also this election is going to be tough and the INDIA alliance will win," Pande told ANI on Friday.
Pande claimed that the candidates of the INDIA alliance were winning the first phase of voting by a significant margin.
"In all the constituencies I have visited, I could see a lot of excitement in people for change. The way voting happened in the first phase, it is very clear that the candidates of INDIA alliance are winning by a good majority. The reason for that is there is dissatisfaction among people, especially among youth, they're totally disappointed with the present government. They want a change," he said.
