Tripura CM Saha congratulates PM Modi on being unanimously elected leader of NDA

Agartala (Tripura) [India], June 7 (ANI): Tripura Chief Minister Dr Manik Saha on Friday met Prime Minister Narendra Modi after the NDA parliamentary party meeting in New Delhi and congratulated him on being unanimously elected as the leader of the NDA.

Dr Saha travelled to Delhi on Thursday to attend the NDA parliamentary party meeting, where Prime Minister Narendra Modi also congratulated Dr Saha on the resounding victory in Tripura in the Lok Sabha election.

Taking to social media platform X, Dr Saha wrote, "Many good wishes and congratulations to Hon'ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji for being unanimously elected as the leader of the NDA parliamentary party in the meeting."

He added that following the mantra of faith and development, the government will work for the people of the country in a stronger form than before in the coming days.

The meeting was attended by top-level leadership including Bharatiya Janata Party president JP Nadda, Amit Shah, Rajnath Singh, Nitin Gadkari, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and other leaders.

Meanwhile, PM Modi said that the Bharatiya Janata Party-led NDA knows how to digest victory without mocking the defeated, adding that 'na hum hare the, na hare hai' (We were neither defeated nor are we defeated).

Addressing the meeting of newly elected MPs of the alliance in Parliament, PM Modi mocked the Opposition INDIA bloc saying that the Opposition Alliance were incapable of defeating them earlier and this time in Lok Sabha Elections.

"They (Opposition) tried to keep us in the shade of defeat. But this never works. All citizens know that 'na hum hare the, na hare hai' (We were neither defeated nor are we defeated). But our behaviour after the June 4th shows our identity that we know how to digest victory. Our values are such that we do not get over excited in the lap of victory and neither do we have the values of mocking the defeated. We protect the victorious and we do not have the intention of mocking the defeated. These are our values. (ANI)
