On the same day, PM Modi also met NDA MPs from West Bengal, Odisha and Jharkhand and said that the journey of 25 years of the alliance has been unprecedented and the NDA intends to take it forward.
“The journey of 25 years of NDA has been unprecedented, we have to take it forward. Whatever role NDA has played is unprecedented. Together we will ensure victory in 2024,” Prime Minister Narendra Modi said, according to a source.
PM Modi is learnt to have also said that the NDA government has done “unprecedented work in infrastructure development” in the past nine years. (ANI)
