'Historic, Decisive': Trump Congratulates PM Modi Over BJP's Win In Bengal Elections

US President Donald Trump congratulated Prime Minister Narendra Modi on what the White House described as a “historic and decisive election victory” in West Bengal. White House spokesman Kush Desai said Trump praised Modi’s leadership and highlighted his earlier phone call in which he expressed admiration for him. The Bharatiya Janata Party has secured its first-ever win in West Bengal, ending the long dominance of the Trinamool Congress led by Mamata Banerjee. The result brings an end to Banerjee’s 15-year rule in the state and marks a major political shift. The outcome is also seen as a strong boost for PM Modi’s national political standing.
