Former BJP chief Shah emphasized that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is enjoying maximum popularity among all the Prime Ministers of India since independence and BJP will benefit from it in these poll-bound states.
“For almost 7 and a half years, BJP’s full majority government is running in the country under the leadership of Narendra Modi. Our government under the leadership of the Prime Minister has made the people of the country realize that an elected government wants to raise the standard of living of the citizens,” he said.
Shah added, “In these five states, the popularity of PM Narendra Modi ji was seen above the popularity of any Prime Minister of independent India, and BJP is getting direct benefit of this in this election.”
2022 Legislative Assembly elections are being held in five states namely Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Goa, Punjab, and Manipur. The results will be declared on March 10.
