I also put on record my sincere thanks to our MPs, party leaders, and workers for working day in and day out to ensure a resounding win in the polls.

He emphasized the BJP's commitment to peace, progress, and prosperity in the state, aligning with Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision of development-oriented governance.

Election Success

In the recent assembly elections, the BJP secured 46 out of 60 seats in Arunachal Pradesh, held concurrently with the Lok Sabha elections. Due to ten ruling BJP candidates, including Khandu, winning unopposed, polling took place in only 50 constituencies.
