West Bengal Going to Be Best Performing State in LS Polls, Fate of Odisha Will Change This Time: PM Modi

Lok Sabha Elections 2024: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday talked about the outcome of the Lok Sabha Elections 2024 and said West Bengal is going to be the best performing state this time and added that the BJP is getting maximum success in the state.

In an exclusive interview to ANI, PM Modi said, “TMC party is fighting for survival in the Bengal elections. This time, the best-performing state in India is going to be West Bengal. BJP is getting maximum success in West Bengal.”

Talking about the assembly elections, PM Modi said the fate of Odisha is about to change and the state government is changing. “I have said that the expiry date of the current Odisha government is June 4 and on June 10, the BJP CM will take oath in Odisha,” he stated.

“As far as Modi is concerned, after being continuously abused for last 24 years, I have become ‘gaali proof’. Who called me ‘maut ka saudaagar’ & ‘gandi naali ka keeda’?” PM Modi said on personal attacks during the election campaigns.

Talking about removal of Article 370, PM Modi said, “Article 370 was the agenda of only 4-5 families, it was neither the agenda of the people of Kashmir nor the agenda of the people of the country. For their benefit, they had built such a wall of 370 and used to say that if 370 is removed, there will be a fire…Today it has become true that after the removal of 370, there is a feeling of more unity. The feeling of belongingness is increasing among the people of Kashmir and hence its direct result is also visible in elections, tourism …”

On high voter turnout in Kashmir, PM Narendra Modi said, “First of all, I would like to pray to the justice system of our country that if the government wants to do any work, they have a design, strategy to do that work. To solve such problems, work had to be done under that strategy. Now sometimes I had to shut down the internet for that. Some NGO went to court and it became a big issue in the court but today the children there proudly say that the internet has not been shut down for the last 5 years and we have been getting all the facilities for the last 5 years. There was some pain for a few days, but it was for a good cause… It is very important to save the country from such NGOs. Secondly, when the common man votes there, it is not just to make someone win, voting means that the voter accepts the Constitution of India and expresses his dedication towards the entire spirit of India… As a result, voting records of 40 years have been broken. It is a matter of greatest satisfaction for me that my brothers and sisters from Kashmir came forward to vote with great enthusiasm. By voting, they have given a message to the world and to those who used to have doubts.”
