""A new chapter has been added to Bengal's destiny," Modi told a cheering crowd, highlighting the BJP's significant breakthrough in a state where it historically struggled."
"The outcome in West Bengal is expected to boost Modi's standing and strengthen his position midway through his third term in office."
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has gained control of West Bengal, winning at least 124 seats in the 294-member assembly. This victory is significant as the BJP has never governed the state, which has been led by Mamata Banerjee since 2011. The election results are expected to enhance Modi's political standing and strengthen his position in his third term. Opposition parties have criticized the election process, particularly the removal of millions of voters from electoral rolls. Modi emphasized the party's growing appeal in West Bengal during a speech to supporters.
