Joshi said the Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP's) stellar performance in the four states is a reflection of Modi's popularity.

"We have struck a boundary by winning in the four states. We have made a record. It is all because of the popularity of Prime Minister Narendra Modi," he said.

Joshi also said the BJP's impressive performance in Uttarakhand, where the party is heading towards securing a two-thirds majority, shows that the young leadership provided by Dhami has got wide and ready acceptance.

Dhami thanked the people of the state for giving yet another big mandate to the party and promised to honour his commitment to set up a high-powered committee to draft a Uniform Civil Code for Uttarakhand.

"Uttarakhand represents the cultural soul of India and deserves to have a Uniform Civil Code and equal laws for every section of the society," he said.

The BJP has so far won 45 seats in Uttarakhand and leads in two more, while the Congress has won 17 seats and leads in two. The Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) has won a seat and leads in one more, while Independent candidates have bagged two seats.
