PM Modi Congratulates BJP on 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 expressed gratitude to voters and praised the party's governance agenda, also acknowledging the NDA ally AINRC's win in Puducherry. The BJP's wins, including a significant margin in the Muslim-majority Rejinagar constituency, were seen as endorsements of the ruling alliance's efforts and are expected to strengthen their mandate going forward.
