BJP President Nitin Nabin Says Bengal Mandate Reflects Faith In PM Modi

As the BJP secured a major victory, BJP President Nitin Nabin on Tuesday congratulated voters in West Bengal and other poll-bound states, voicing confidence in Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Nabin made the remarks after visiting a temple to offer prayers following what he described as a historic win in the West Bengal Assembly elections.

Speaking to reporters, he stated, “I congratulate the people of West Bengal and the other states that went to the polls. After this victory in the land of Maa Kali and Maa Kamakhya, I have come here to offer prayers before Maa Kali.”

The BJP President expressed hope that divine blessings would guide the country’s progress.

“I pray that Maa Durga, Maa Kali, and Maa Kamakhya bless us so that West Bengal, Assam, and the entire nation continue to develop. Under the leadership of PM Narendra Modi, who is working tirelessly for the nation while preserving our culture and traditions, I firmly believe that the cultural heritage of West Bengal will move forward,” he asserted.

The BJP President added that the mandate reflects public aspirations.

“The way people have supported us shows that they are fulfilling their own aspirations through this mandate. I have come here to seek the blessings of Maa Kali, and I pray that the entire country is blessed with peace and prosperity,” Nitin Nabin noted.

The BJP’s strong performance marks a significant shift in West Bengal, long considered a stronghold of the All India Trinamool Congress led by Mamata Banerjee, a vocal critic of PM Modi.
