It's good that Puducherry has given another chance to NDA, but let's be honest - the real credit goes to Rangasamy's local connect. Modi's brand helped on the national level, but local issues matter too. Hope the good governance continues.

As a Puducherry resident, I voted for NDA because of infrastructure improvements - roads, water supply, and cleanliness projects have actually shown results. Plus, the Union Territory status means central cooperation is key. Modi ji's development vision is real. 🙏

Pragmatic politics at its best! DMK lost ground, Congress is irrelevant, and TVK made a splash but only got two seats. NDA's alliance management is impressive - NR Congress + BJP + AIADMK = 17 seats. That's how you win in a diverse place like Puducherry.

As an outsider looking in, this seems like a solid mandate for continuity. But I'm curious - with 30 seats, a simple majority is 16. NDA has 17, which is razor thin. How will coalition dynamics play out over the next five years? Stability in Puducherry matters for business.

Honestly, people voted for peace and development, not just Modi magic. Rangasamy's work on tourism and education is visible. But NDA must handle the French flavor of Puducherry sensitively - heritage matters. Good luck to them! 🇮🇳

Interesting that TVK won 2 seats in its debut. Could this signal a regional alternative emerging in Tamil Nadu politics? For now, NDA's strategy of aligning with local parties like NR Congress seems to work. But governance will decide the 2026 assembly elections.
