Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday hailed the Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) majority in the Karnataka polls as an extraordinary and massive victory.
The Prime Minister thanked the people of Karnataka for their support and also lauded the efforts of the party workers. “In Karnataka, the way the workers have worked, I want to thank them. Our national president Amit Shah worked so hard. In the bright future of Karnataka, the BJP will not be far behind, I assure the people of Karnataka,” Prime Minister Narendra Modi said while addressing the party workers here. He further attacked the Congress party and said it is trying to come to power in the state by forming an alliance with the Janata Dal (Secular), despite facing rejection. The Prime Minister further said that by rejecting the mandate of the people, the party is hurting India’s Constitution for its political interests.
“No one could have imagined that in this election, Congress would do an act to hurt India’s Constitution only for its political interests,” he said. The Prime Minister also said that the Karnataka elections are proof that the BJP is not a party for only Hindi speaking states. “They said the BJP is a party of Hindi speaking states. Are Goa, Gujarat, Maharashtra, the northeastern states of Hindi speaking states? No, BJP represents India and our proud diversity,” Prime Minister Modi said. Both, JD(S) and the BJP have taken appointment from the Governor of Karnataka to discuss the possibility to come to power in the state.
