“In Bengal, many of our workers have dedicated their lives to this victory. Several BJP women workers have had to endure immense atrocities. You cannot imagine the hardships BJP workers have faced in Kerala and Bengal, the extent of oppression and injustice they have suffered. Today, I dedicate the success of the Bharatiya Janata Party in Bengal to all such workers and their families,” he added.

On the occasion, Prime Minister Modi also remembered Dr. Syama Prasad Mookerjee.
“A thought keeps coming to my mind again and again, and that is: how much peace the soul of Dr. Syama Prasad Mookerjee must be feeling today. By founding the Jana Sangh in 1951, he had given every worker the message that one must live for the country and, if needed, die for the country,” he said.
