After this mandate of CAIT, about 7 crore traders all over the Country are expected to vote BJP and NDA allies as a vote bank.
The message of CAIT will be percolated down the line through thousands of trade associations all over the Country to traders. On the other hand under "whisper campaign' of CAIT the traders will urge their customers also to vote and support BJP in polls.
''Beside more than 30 crore employees working in business community will also be encouraged to vote and support BJP,'' he said.
There are about 195 Lok Sabha seats where traders are in dominance and their voting pattern will decide the results of the polls in such constituencies.
