Gujarat CM links BJP election gains to trust in PM Modi's development agenda

Gujarat CM Bhupendra Patel says BJP's lead in West Bengal, Assam polls shows public confidence in PM Modi's development-led governance and Viksit Bharat 2047 vision.

"The result in West Bengal was not just an electoral win, but the unwavering trust placed by the people in the development-oriented politics of Prime Minister Narendra Modi - Gujarat CM Bhupendra Patel"

Gandhinagar, May 4

Gujarat Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel said on Monday that the Bharatiya Janata Party's performance in the latest round of Assembly elections reflected public confidence in development-led governance, as trends showed the party taking a decisive lead in West Bengal and Assam.

Addressing party workers at a celebration at the state BJP headquarters, Chief Minister Patel said the result in West Bengal was "not just an electoral win, but the unwavering trust placed by the people in the development-oriented politics of Prime Minister Narendra Modi".

According to Election Commission trends, the BJP was leading in around 200 seats in the 294-member West Bengal Assembly, well past the majority mark, while the Trinamool Congress trailed with about 80 seats.

Chief Minister Patel said the outcome should also be seen as a validation of the Prime Minister's "Viksit Bharat at 2047" vision.

He welcomed the party's performance in Assam, where trends showed the BJP leading in about 82 seats in the 126-member Assembly, showcasing the power continuation.

He also referred to the party's win in the Umreth by-election in Gujarat and said "the public is aligning with positive politics".

Earlier, CM Patel congratulated BJP's candidate Harsh Parmar, son of late sitting MLA Govind Parmar, for winning Umreth by-election with a margin of over 30,000 votes.

In a post on social media platform X, the Chief Minister said, "Heartfelt congratulations to Bharatiya Janata Party candidate Harshad Parmar on the resounding victory in the Umreth Assembly by-election. Many congratulations as well to all the dedicated party workers."

"I sincerely thank the people of Umreth for their unwavering faith in the BJP's politics of development. The flow of development and public service in Umreth will continue uninterrupted, and Umreth will make a significant contribution to the creation of a 'Developed Gujarat'," he added.

BJP workers celebrated with drums, slogans and sweets, while a stall serving jhalmuri, associated with West Bengal, was set up at the venue.

Chief Minister Patel thanked the voters in West Bengal, Assam, Puducherry and Umreth for their support and praised party workers for their "tireless efforts".

"The party's approach of learning from setbacks and continuing organisational work had contributed to the results," he noted.

Senior leaders, including Gujarat BJP President Jagdish Vishwakarma and Deputy Chief Minister Harsh Sanghavi, along with Ministers and party workers, were present at the event.

As a Gujarati in Mumbai, I see the trust people have in Modi ji. But we must also ask - what about local issues in Umreth? The by-election margin is big but hope the new MLA delivers on basic amenities.

Interesting to see BJP making such big strides in Bengal. The jhalmuri stall at the Gujarat celebration is a nice touch of cultural connection. Let's see if this leads to real change in West Bengal's governance.

The Viksit Bharat 2047 vision sounds ambitious but we need concrete timelines and accountability. Development is not just about winning elections - it must translate into better schools, hospitals and roads for everyone. 🇮🇳

From Surat, and I'm seeing real infra changes in my area. But the minority communities still feel left out sometimes. BJP needs to ensure no one feels excluded from this "development" narrative. Just saying.

Good to see democracy working. We voted for change in Bengal, and it's happening. Now focus on improving healthcare and education across all states. Jai Hind! 🇮🇳

Reading this from California. The scale of BJP's win in Bengal is huge by any standard. But I wonder if the celebrations are premature - trends can change. Still, impressive to see democratic transitions happening peacefully in India.
