Uttar Pradesh Minister for Dairy, Wakf, Minorities Welfare and Culture Laxmi Narain Chaudhary today attributed the BJP's victory in the northeast to the faith of the people on the prime minister's leadership and commitment to the welfare of the nation. "The election results have put a stamp on the fact that Modi is the symbol of national integration," Chaudhary said reacting to the recent elections in the northeast states. He said the results denounced the allegation that the BJP only won because of its 'Hindutwa vote bank (Hindu Votes)'. The results were proof that people living in the northeastern states were rejecting the politics of the Left, Chaudhary said. Comparing the election victory to India's victory in the 1971 war, he said, in spite of the fact that India had only 70,000 Army personnel against 94,000 of Pakistan, owing to the leadership and commitment of Gen Manekshaw, the Pakistani army had to surrender. In the same way, success in every election awaits the BJP under the leadership of Modi, owing to his honesty, hard work, character, art of speaking and style of working, the minister said.
