Agartala, September 26: Chief Minister Prof. Dr. Manik Saha on Tuesday said that people have come to realize that without the BJP, the state’s development is not possible and voters who were previously affiliated with other opposition parties have begun to join the BJP, inspired by PM Narendra Modi’s ‘Seva Hi Sangathan’ mantra.
Dr. Saha said this after 269 voters from various opposition parties officially joined the Bharatiya Janata Party during the ‘Jana Ashirwad Yatra’ held at Chawmanu School ground in the Dhalai district today.
“In today’s gathering, many families will be joining the BJP. I extend a warm welcome to them for choosing the right time to join our party. A few days ago, elections were held in two seats. I made it a point to visit these two seats every single day. Many people mentioned that they had never seen a chief minister visit poll-bound assemblies. I conducted padyatras, went door-to-door, and as a result, we won both seats, which were considered CPIM’s stronghold,” stated Dr. Saha.
He further emphasized that PM Modi has redefined politics, and in Tripura, the BJP is following this direction.
“When I was in Delhi, many leaders inquired how we managed to win both seats. I told them that people are increasingly drawn to the BJP and are embracing the ideology that without the BJP, the state and the country cannot progress. Inspired by PM Narendra Modi’s ‘Seva Hi Sangathan’ mantra, voters are flocking to the BJP,” Dr. Saha said.
The Chief Minister also affirmed that the government is committed to the overall welfare of all sections of the populace. “In the past, divisive lines were drawn based on caste and ethnicity. The Communists only engaged in politics of division. With the advent of the BJP, these lines have been erased,” he added.
