EDITORIAL
People showering blessings on BJP
A
s Bharatiya Janata Party resolves to further intensify its efforts to serve the people in its National Office
Bearers meeting, the people of Gujarat have responded by blessing the party overwhelmingly in
the recently held municipal body elections. The people support was so massive that BJP emerged
victorious in 85 percent seats sweeping the elections in all the six municipal bodies which went to the polls.
The results of Gujarat municipal elections further reinforces the trend across the nation whereby BJP is
increasingly becoming the most favoured choice of the people in elections from panchayats to parliament.
In the recently held elections in Bihar, in the by-elections held across the nation – from Gujarat to Manipur
and from Madhya Pradesh to Uttar Pradesh and Telangana, from GHMC elections to Bodoland Territorial
Council elections, from Kashmir DDC elections to Ladakh Municipal Council elections – everywhere Lotus
is blooming. The commitment of BJP to serve the people with the mantra of ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Viaks,
Sabka Vishwas’ is getting people’s support everywhere in the country. The people are blessing BJP again
and again and even more than before.
Today, the visionary and inspiring leadership of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi has been recognized
globally as India becomes a hope of many countries in the world. While in the country massive relief work
was carried out during the Corona pandemic ensuring food, job and health security of

than 150 countries. realizing the goals of an ‘Aatmnirbhar Bharat’ has also initiated the process to unleash
the potential of the nation making India confident of its own capabilities in almost every
field. The Prime Minister has rightly said that an ‘Aatmnirbhar Bharat’ will be a force multiplier for the global
economy and as the Budget 2021 show, India is set to move ahead with double digit growth with V-shape
recovery. The reforms initiated during the pandemic covering almost every sector are also transforming
India which is ready to take a giant leap in the post-Covid world.
The challenges posed by the Covid-19 pandemic were not only enormous but appeared insurmountable
in many ways. It was the positive approach in a sensitive manner with intense belief in the concept of
‘Antyodaya’, that the new opportunities were created by applying novel means. Today, while the entire
world is appreciating the leadership of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi in glowing terms, the people
within the country are showering their blessings and love on BJP in every election. As elections for the
five states are approaching the writings on the wall are getting clearer with people showing overwhelming
support for Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi and BJP. While the states where BJP is in government
people are set to re-elect them on the basis of their outstanding performances, the people in the states
where BJP is not in government are looking forward to vote for electing BJP government in their states. It
is the responsibility of every BJP karyakarta to reach to every electorate and give the message of the Prime
Minister and BJP so that people’s dream of having BJP government in their own states is realized. BJP
karyakartas have done it before and there is no doubt that they will do it again.
