‘Development, unity won’: PM Modi hails Maharashtra victory
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday hailed the ruling BJP-led NDA victory in Maharashtra as a win for development, good governance and unity and congratulated the JMM-led coalition for retaining Jharkhand.
”Development wins! Good governance wins! United we will soar even higher! Heartfelt gratitude to my sisters and brothers of Maharashtra, especially the youth and women of the state, for a historic mandate to the NDA. This affection and warmth is unparalleled,” Modi said in a post on X as NDA headed towards a massive four fifth majority in the 288 member Maharashtra Assembly, beating anti-incumbency.
He assured the people of Maharashtra of continuous striving for their progress, lauding them with the “Jai Maharashtra!” call.
The Prime Minister further congratulated the JMM-led coalition for winning Jharkhand and promised to keep raising issues of the people there.
“I thank the people of Jharkhand for their support towards us. We will always be at the forefront of raising people’s issues and working for the state.
“I also congratulate the JMM-led alliance for their performance in the state,” he said after the BJP failed to upset the incumbents in the eastern state.
Overall on BJP’s positive bypoll performance (27 leads in 46 Assembly seats and a lead in Nanded Lok Sabha bypoll), Modi said NDA’s pro-people efforts resonated all over.
“I thank people across various states for blessing NDA candidates in the various by-polls held. We will leave no stone unturned in fulfilling their dreams and aspirations,” he said.
