Prime Minister Narendra Modi stated that the NDA’s sweeping victory in Bihar has paved the way for the BJP in next year’s assembly elections. He said the party will end “jungle raj” in West Bengal.

The PM referred to some states and union territories where the BJP has never formed a government of its own and said the massive victory in Bihar has infused party workers in Kerala, Puducherry and West Bengal with new energy. (ANI)
