New Delhi/IBNS: Popular television actress Rupali Ganguly on Wednesday lauded the "development" taking place in the country joining the country's ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which is seeking a third straight term in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.

Besides praising the "development", Ganguly lauded Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who also happens to be the supreme leader of BJP.
