PM Modi's BJP "landslide win" in Gujarat hits global headlines; Know who said what-

New Delhi, Dec 9: With a record-breaking victory in Gujarat, PM Narendra Modi's Bharatiya Janata Party has managed to hit headlines across global platforms. The international media have widely reported on the landslide win in Gujarat where Prime Minister Narendra Modi scripted history on his home turf.

 

 

The ruling BJP recorded a historic win in Gujarat, winning 156 seats. The BJP's 7th consecutive Assembly poll win in Gujarat is also its biggest since the founding of this state in 1960.

 

Speaking about the same, the Straits Times of Singapore, Washington Post, The Guardian Nikkei Asia, Al Jazeera, Independent, ABC News were among the global publications which displayed photographs of jubilant celebrations of the BJP's win in Gujarat.

 

 

British publication The Guardian reported that Prime Minister Modi had given a significant boost to his Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), a sign of the party's enduring popularity before a general election due in 2024.

 

 

Noting how BJP has not lost a Gujarat assembly election since 1995, Japan's Nikkei Asia attributed this win to PM Modi's popularity in the state of Gujarat. "Modi is wildly popular in the state, where he served as chief minister for nearly 13 years before becoming prime minister in 2014," the newspaper said.

 

 

USA's Washington Post being anti-India, said "Indian PM Modi's party wins in one state, loses in another". "A win in both Gujarat and Himachal Pradesh states would have emboldened Modi and his Bharatiya Janata Party to pursue its pro-Hindu agenda with greater vigor ahead of national elections due in 2024," it said.
