Tripura CM Manik Saha sworn in as MLA, says better results await BJP in 2023 polls

Speaking to reporters after the swearing-in ceremony, the chief minister said, “I took the oath today. We shall make even better results in 2023. The public sees which party is kaamdar. The PM thinks for the common people. Wherever the BJP or NDA government is there, the public are with the BJP. Our party won four out of five states where elections were held recently. In Tripura, we won three out of four seats which went to bypolls. The public is with us”.

He emphasised that development is his party’s main agenda which would continue in 2023. “BJP means development and our alliance partner IPFT always speaks about development. Development is our sole issue,” he said.

Asked if he would face the 2023 general elections, Saha said, “I do whatever responsibility the party entrusts me with.”

His comments come shortly after the BJP Karyakarini Sabha was held at Udaipur in Gomati district on Thursday, where the party said it took stock of organisational strength across the party rank and file and frontal organisations, identified strengths and weaknesses and would work on bridging the gap.
