Congress may soon get divided in future, says PM Modi

Congress only believes in negative politics, wasting Parliament's time, attacking every institution. Making incorrect accusations of vote theft, appeasement and dividing policy.

Today Congress has turned into Muslim League and Maoist Congress and their agenda functions on this only. This is why, inside the party there is a concern developing and the party could again divide.

Congress losing people's trust, not able to reach three digit figure in last three Lok Sabha elections, says PM Modi

We formed the government at the Centre for the third time in row. This happened for the first time afte 60 years. We won in Haryana, came back to power in Maharashtra and now in Bihar, which has such a big population, secured another win. People are looking at the NDA government with big hopes.

Every community, caste, region has given us their confidence and blessings and are continuously showering us with their support. If people are voting for us even after 20 years, this is a pro people, pro development politics. This is the way forward for Indian politics and this is how we will also make Bihar a developed state.

Congress which ruled for decades is losing people's trust. It has been out of power in several states for several decades. For the last three lok sabha elections, Congress has not been able to reach the 3 digit figure.

In the last few years, there were 6 state elections but congress was not able to get a total of 100 seats in these elections

Opposition called Chhath a drama, Bihar will never forget this, says PM Modi

The people who have ruled the country for decades have never respected Bihar and its people. They have insulted the people of the state. They have insulted chatthi maiyaan. The people of Bihar will never forget this. The pride of Bihar is our priority.

People have ensured that jungle raj will never come back in the state, says PM Modi

PM Modi: Bihar voters have made this clearly-- politicians out on bail will not be supported. Bihar has voted for real social justice, where every one gets equal opportunity, where there is no place for communalization. The people only want development, they want to make developed Bihar. The new government is walking towards the 25th anniversary in power. The people have ensured that jungle raj will never come back in the state. Today's victory is of those women and daughters, who suffered RJD's jungle raj.

This is the victory of those youths, who's future were destroyed by Left parties and Congress. Bihar is now walking on the path of development and it won't stop. Today's victory is also an answer to anti-Bihar development, who used to say that Bihar does not need highways and industries.

Voters have supported SIR initiative wholeheartedly, says PM Modi

Everyone voted according to their choice in this collection. The low repolling cases also show the confidence in our election machinery.

in 1995, repolling was done in more than 1,500 booths. But as soon as the jungle raj was ended, the policies started becoming better. During the two-phased election in 2025, no where re-polling was required. And for this I think, the election commission and everyone else who was involved in the process.

We are all proud of you. The Bihar elections have also cleared one thing- the voters, especially the young, are taking the cleaning of the voter roll very seriously.

Bihar voters have supported SIR initiative with full might. Every voter is important and it is the responsibility of every party to make themselves active and join the process of voter roll purification.

Bihar is the birthplace of democracy in India.

People voted without fear, says PM Modi

Today it is not just the victory of NDA but the win of the democracy as well. This election has strengthen the confidence of people in our elections. Earlier, in Maoist dominated areas, it was difficult to vote after 3pm. But now people have voted without fear. What used to happen during Jungle Raj, you all know.

Bihar has given us a new positive MY formula of mahila and youth, says PM Modi

There is an old saying: steel cuts steel. Some parties in Bihar made MY formula for appeasement. But Bihar has now given us new positive MY formula -- Mahila and Youth. Today Bihar is one of those states, where youth are among the highest, from all castes and religion.

There aspirations have demolished the old jungle raaj formula. I also want to thank the women, farmers, fishermen and everyone else.

Bihar ECI election result live: Trinamool Congress says Bihar verdict will not impact Bengal, asserts Mamata will return with 250+ seats

The Trinamool Congress on Friday asserted that the Bihar election results-where the BJP-led NDA is headed for a landslide victory-will have no bearing on next year's West Bengal Assembly polls.

TMC spokesperson Kunal Ghosh wrote on X that Mamata Banerjee will return to power for a fourth term with over 250 seats, insisting that Bengal's political dynamics are entirely different.

Ghosh argued that the Bihar results once again demonstrate the Congress's inability to counter the BJP effectively.

"That is Bihar's equation. It has no connection with Bengal," he said. "In Bengal, the key factors are development, unity, harmony, rights, and self-respect."

He added that there will be keen interest in how the BJP-JD(U) relationship evolves after the NDA's massive lead in Bihar, where the alliance was ahead in more than 180 of 243 seats by noon.

Ghosh also alleged that the BJP and the Election Commission may attempt "conspiracies" in West Bengal around SIR and related issues, warning of "misuse of agencies and central power." He said the TMC will counter such moves through public outreach and grassroots mobilisation.

Taking a jab at Bengal's BJP unit, he said leaders trying to "threaten" the state by pointing to Bihar's results are "wasting their time."

"You cannot win the love of Bengal's people by attacking their rights and self-respect," he asserted.

Ghosh concluded by claiming that several states, including Bihar, follow Mamata Banerjee's development model:

"Here-whether winter, summer, or monsoon-Mamata Banerjee remains the people's trust."
