Following a resounding victory for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in the Arunachal Pradesh assembly election, Chief Minister Pema Khandu expressed his gratitude to the people and pledged to fulfill the party’s electoral promises.
With the BJP securing 46 out of 60 seats in the assembly, Khandu conveyed his appreciation to the voters for their continued trust in the party’s vision, as well as the efforts of Team Arunachal in addressing the needs of all sections of society.
“I bow in gratitude to the great people of Arunachal Pradesh for their continued trust in the vision of Hon’ble PM Shri @narendramodji and the efforts of Team Arunachal in taking care of the well-being of every section of society,” Khandu conveyed on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), shortly after the election results were declared.
The 44-year-old politician emphasized his commitment to ensuring the progress of Arunachal Pradesh, affirming that the process of building a self-reliant state would not falter under his leadership.
Expressing appreciation for the dedication of the party’s workers, Khandu also extended thanks to the leadership of BJP President Shri @JPNadda, Union Ministers, Chief Ministers, and senior party members for their guidance and support throughout the electoral campaign.
Having been elected unopposed in March, Khandu is expected to retain his position as chief minister in the new government. Governor Lieutenant General (Retired) KT Parnaik has entrusted him with the role of caretaker CM until the formal transition of power takes place.
In addition to the BJP’s landslide victory, the Election Commission of India’s website revealed wins for the National People’s Party (NPP), Nationalist Congress Party (NCP), People’s Party of Arunachal (PPA), and the Congress, with three independent candidates also securing seats.
