Amit Malviya Tweets

Sharing a video, Amit Malviya wrote: “How BJP respects its seniors and workers…

On the stage, the Prime Minister took the blessings of Shri Makhanlal Sarkar, one of the BJP’s most senior workers in West Bengal.

At the age of 98, Shri Makhanlal Sarkar remains one of the earliest grassroots figures associated with the nationalist movement in post-Independence India.

In 1952, he was arrested in Kashmir while accompanying Syama Prasad Mukherjee during the movement to hoist the Indian tricolor there.” Following the formation of the BJP in 1980, he became the organizational coordinator for the districts of West Dinajpur, Jalpaiguri, and Darjeeling. Within just one year, he helped enroll approximately 10,000 members into the party.

“From 1981 onwards, he served continuously for seven years as district president, an exceptional achievement at a time when BJP leaders generally could not remain in the same organizational position for more than two years.” Suvendu Adhikari Becomes CM

Suvendu Adhikari has taken the oath of office as the new Chief Minister of West Bengal. This time around, Suvendu Adhikari contested the elections from two constituencies. He defeated the former Chief Minister of West Bengal, Mamata Banerjee, in Bhabanipur.

Apart from PM Modi, several other leaders—including Union Home Minister Amit Shah, BJP National President Nitin Navin, Defense Minister Rajnath Singh, UP CM Yogi Adityanath, and Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta—participated in the swearing-in ceremony.

Sought Blessings by Touching Feet

Immediately after taking the oath as Chief Minister, Suvendu Adhikari first touched the feet of Prime Minister Narendra Modi to seek his blessings. During this moment, PM Modi embraced him and extended his best wishes. Suvendu met with every leader present on the dais, one by one, and each of them congratulated him with great warmth. When he approached Yogi Adityanath, the latter welcomed him by draping his traditional *gamcha* (towel) around him.
