Prime Minister Narendra Modi is expected to visit the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) headquarters in New Delhi on Monday evening, as early election trends indicate strong gains for the party in West Bengal and Assam. According to BJP chief spokesperson Anil Baluni, the Prime Minister is scheduled to arrive at the party office at 6 PM, as shared in a post on X.

In West Bengal, the BJP has crossed the majority mark, marking a major setback for Trinamool Congress (TMC) chief Mamata Banerjee, who was aiming for a fourth consecutive term in power. Election Commission trends show the BJP leading with 156 seats, while the TMC is trailing with 86 seats. The BJP’s ally BGPM is ahead in one seat, indicating a significant political shift in the state’s landscape.

Senior BJP leader and Leader of Opposition in West Bengal, Suvendu Adhikari, expressed confidence that the party would secure more than 180 seats. He criticized the TMC’s performance and claimed strong consolidation of Hindu votes in favor of Prime Minister Modi. He also highlighted BJP’s strong performance in Hindu-majority regions, while noting that the TMC maintained influence in districts such as Malda, Murshidabad, and North Dinajpur, where Congress has also shown presence.

In Assam, the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) is leading decisively, ahead in 87 constituencies, with the BJP itself leading in 71 seats. The Congress remains far behind with 21 seats. NDA allies Bodoland People’s Front and Asom Gana Parishad are ahead in 9 and 7 seats respectively, strengthening the coalition’s position in the state. In Puducherry, Chief Minister N Rangasamy is leading from the Thattanchavady constituency by over 4,300 votes. Early trends from the Election Commission suggest that the NDA is on course to form the government, leading in 11 out of 30 assembly seats.
