Karnataka CM upbeat after poll wins

Buoyed by the election results in favour of BJP in four States, Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai on Thursday said the party’s victory there will have a positive effect in the state, which goes to Assembly polls next year. “There will be a positive effect of this election on Karnataka. The election results have filled our workers with enthusiasm.

The BJP will march forward with more vigour in implementing the programmes mentioned in our budget,” he told reporters here. He vowed that his government will give a “prosperous, safe and new” Karnataka to the people of the state.

“We are confident that the people of Karnataka will install us in the 2023 general assembly election for another five years,” Bommai said. He congratulated the BJP leadership for the tremendous show in four out of five assembly elections.

“Especially in Uttar Pradesh, the BJP has garnered more seats to form the ‘double engine government’ led by its Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath.

I congratulate the voters of five states, especially our leader Prime Minister Narendra Modi, our party president J P Nadda, Home Minister Amit Shah, Adityanath and others,” Bommai said.
