Tripura BJP President Rajib Bhattacharya expressed confidence in the party’s performance, attributing the leads to the public’s trust in Prime Minister Narendra Modi. “The results are a testament to the people’s faith in PM Modi’s leadership. We’re leading in both seats here in Tripura, and our aim to secure the security deposit has been our main focus,” he stated, adding his congratulations to the citizens of the state and the nation.
Bhattacharya also remarked on the political landscape, asserting that the electorate has dismissed the CPIM-Congress alliance, signaling a clear preference for the BJP’s governance.
