PM Modi and BJP Celebrate Wins in West Bengal, Assam, and Puducherry Bypolls
Prime Minister Narendra Modi congratulated BJP candidates following their victories in by-elections for two West Bengal assembly seats—Nandigram and Rejinagar—and the Nagaon Lok Sabha seat in Assam. Modi highlighted the electorate's connection with the BJP-NDA's governance agenda and praised party workers and allies, including the AINRC in Puducherry. The BJP's wins, including in Muslim-majority Rejinagar, were seen as significant political endorsements amid opposition challenges. Union Home Minister Amit Shah also credited the results to public confidence in Modi's leadership, while opposition parties faced criticism for their campaigns.
