PM Modi Says Gen Z Supports BJP’s Development Model
Prime Minister Narendra Modi said India’s Gen Z believes in the BJP’s development-focused governance model, citing the party’s recent victory in the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation elections as proof of growing youth support.
BMC Result Cited as Evidence
Speaking at a public event in West Bengal, Modi said the BMC outcome reflected the trust of young voters in the BJP’s approach to development, governance and infrastructure-led growth. He described the municipal poll result as a clear message from voters who want performance-based politics.
Attack on Bengal Government
The Prime Minister criticised the Trinamool Congress-led government in West Bengal, alleging poor governance and obstruction of central welfare schemes. He said the state needs a development-oriented alternative and urged voters, especially the youth, to back change.
Political Context
With West Bengal Assembly elections scheduled later this year, the BJP has intensified its campaign in the state. The party is positioning youth support and urban electoral gains as indicators of shifting political trends beyond traditional regional strongholds.
Modi said young voters are increasingly focusing on development outcomes rather than identity-based politics, and claimed this shift is strengthening the BJP’s national appeal.
