Narendra Modi praises BJP Karyakartas for strong performance in Tripura, north- east

The BJP toppled Left Front in the state emerge victorious in the north-eastern state.

Appreciating party workers, Modi said: "Today, it is due to the performance of the workers that BJP has emerged as a banyan tree across the country."

He said the dedicated performance of workers have helped the party form  structured organisation in every nook and corner of the country.

He said: "At one point in time, BJP did not have structured organisation on the ground in many parts of the country. But today, it has spread to every nook and corner of the country due to sheer hard work and dedication of millions of selfless karyakartas."

Describing BJP's emergence as a strong force in the north eastern states, Modi said: "The Sun is red at the time of sunset and turns saffron when it rises."

Modi said the words while addressing the BJP Karyakartas following victory in Tripura Assembly polls and making a strong impact in the north-eastern region.

Manik Sarkar and his Left ruled the state for 25 years and its strong presence was blown to dust amid strong BJP winds with the party winning 43 seats in the state. The Left were moved down to 16 seats.

Meanwhile,  welcoming BJP's landmark victory in Tripura, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday said the win in the state will be remembered as an 'epoch-making one'.
