During a BJP legislative party meeting, Union Home Minister Amit Shah announced Suvendu Adhikari as the new Chief Minister of West Bengal, following the party's overwhelming victory in the Assembly elections. The BJP secured 207 seats in the 294-member Assembly, a significant increase from 77 seats in 2021, effectively ending the 15-year rule of the Trinamool Congress led by Mamata Banerjee. Amit Shah emphasized the historic nature of this victory, attributing it to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership and the party's ideological journey since its founding. He noted that the BJP's success reflects both public support and dissatisfaction with the previous government. Shah also paid tribute to the sacrifices of BJP workers who lost their lives during political conflicts in the state. Following the announcement, Suvendu Adhikari addressed party supporters, celebrating the victory and calling for unity under Modi's leadership.
