New Delhi, May 4 (PMI): Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday, reacting to the Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) strong performance in the West Bengal Assembly elections, said that the focus should now be on positive change rather than revenge.

Addressing party workers during victory celebrations at the BJP headquarters, he congratulated them and said the party would continue to work for a better future for Bengal. Referring to the violence witnessed during elections, he appealed to workers of all political parties to put an end to this never-ending cycle of violence.

The Prime Minister said, “Now that the BJP has won, the focus should not be on revenge but on change. We must look toward a brighter future, not fear.” He also emphasized that, for the first time, West Bengal witnessed relatively peaceful polling, and no innocent civilian lost their life, calling it a major victory for democracy.

In his speech, Modi paid tribute to Syama Prasad Mookerjee, the ideologue of the BJP, saying that his soul would be at peace today as the party is set to form a government in Bengal for the first time.

He assured that the new government would prioritize women’s safety, employment for youth, and overall development of the state. He also announced that the Ayushman Bharat Yojana would be approved in the first cabinet meeting, and strict action would be taken against infiltrators.

The Prime Minister further stated, “A new chapter in Bengal’s destiny begins today. The state will now move forward free from fear and filled with confidence in development.”

Praising party workers, he said the elections showcased the organizational strength of the BJP. He also described the party’s performance in the by-elections across various states as encouraging.

It may be noted that vote counting for Assembly elections in Assam, West Bengal, Kerala, Tamil Nadu, and Puducherry has concluded, with the BJP showing notable improvement in its performance in several states. (pressmediaofindia.com)

Opposition parties opposing women’s quota, delimitation for politics: Kishan Reddy New Delhi, April 17 (PMI): Union Minister G Kishan Reddy on Friday accused the opposition parties of resisting the Women’s Reservation and Delimitation Bills for political mileage. Talking to newsmen, he asserted that the Centre’s proposed formula ensures fairness to all states, rejecting claims of injustice to southern regions. Reddy alleged that parties fear losing dominance if new leadership emerges through reservations and constituency changes. He also criticized regional parties for spreading “false propaganda” and called for a public debate on the issue. “Speaking in the Lok Sabha, the Prime Minister, the Home Minister, and the Central Government delivered a very clear message that no state would suffer any injustice whatsoever. Unlike the manner in which the delimitation was conducted when the Congress party was in power, we are introducing a Bill that is favorable and acceptable to all, ensuring equitable justice for every state. Despite this, the opposition continues to engage in false propaganda within Parliament. Citing census data, they claimed that the population in the South was declining and that the region would be penalized for having successfully implemented family planning measures. Initially, their argument was that if the constituency delimitation were to be undertaken following the census, the South would inevitably face injustice. However, today, recognizing the sentiments of the people and ensuring that the number of seats in the South does not diminish, the Modi government has introduced a formula involving a 50% increase”, he noted. Further, Kishan Reddy alleged that from the very beginning, it has been a calculated conspiracy by the Majlis party to ensure that the women are denied any form of political reservation. Statements made by Majlis party leaders specifically Akbaruddin Owaisi suggesting that the entry of the women into politics would give rise to new complications and problems, are officially recorded in the Assembly records. Fearing that a delimitation of constituencies in Hyderabad could jeopardize their own seats, the Majlis party is now conspiring in tandem with both the Congress and the BRS parties . Having held consultations with these two parties, the Majlis party is actively campaigning against both the proposed delimitation and the provision of Women’s reservations”, he remarked. (PMI)
