Nayab Singh Saini met with Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday. This meeting comes just before his anticipated swearing-in as the head of the BJP government in the state. The BJP recently achieved a remarkable victory in the assembly elections.
During the campaign, the BJP indicated that Saini was their chosen candidate for the top position. He took over from Manohar Lal Khattar in March and represents the Other Backward Classes. After his meeting with Modi, Saini credited the party’s success to the Prime Minister‘s effective policies.
Despite some psephologists favoring Congress before the polls, Saini remained confident. He believed voters would support the BJP due to the government’s impactful initiatives.
When questioned about Congress‘s doubts regarding electronic voting machines (EVMs), Saini dismissed these claims. He suggested that the opposition was merely stirring up unfounded concerns.
He stated, “The credit for this significant victory goes to Modi, whose initiatives over the past decade have benefited the poor, farmers, youth, and women. These efforts have positively impacted all sections of society. People admire him, which is why the BJP is set to return to power for a third time.”
The BJP defied anti-incumbency trends, achieving a hat-trick in Haryana. They successfully maintained their hold on power and thwarted Congress‘s attempts to make a comeback. The results, announced on Tuesday, revealed that the BJP secured its best-ever performance, winning 48 seats—11 more than Congress.
Other parties, such as the JJP and AAP, faced significant losses. The INLD managed to claim only two seats, while the AAP contested independently.
As Haryana moves forward, the BJP‘s victory under Nayab Singh Saini signals a commitment to effective governance. This win sets the stage for future developments in the state’s political landscape. The focus now will be on how the government implements policies that resonate with the electorate.
Kolkata: On Friday, January 10, 2026, Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha members demonstrated against West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee for her actions after the ED raids at the I-PAC office and its chief Pratik Jain's home. | In relation to an alleged coal smuggling case that stretches back a few years, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) searched the Indian Political Action Committee (I-PAC) office and Pratik Jain's home on Loudon Street in Kolkata on Thursday, January 8, 2025. West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee launched a protest against the ED raids on I-PAC after the raid set off a political storm in the state. Why is a chief minister endorsing Pratik Jain, and who is he? Pratik Jain, a political strategist and co-founder of I-PAC, is a graduate of IIT Bombay. He is credited with helping I-PAC grow into one of the most significant political consulting organizations in India. I-PAC was established in 2015 and offers services like data-driven campaign management, support for governance, and voter outreach initiatives. It has collaborated with a number of Indian political groups throughout the years, notably West Bengal's Trinamool Congress (TMC). I-PAC reportedly collaborates closely with Abhishek Banerjee, the national general secretary of the Trinamool Congress, and his office. The company oversees the IT and media division of the Mamata Banerjee-led TMC and is in charge of creating its election campaigns. Mr. Jain was in charge of the Trinamool Congress's IT cell, according to Ms. Banerjee. According to his LinkedIn page, Jain, an engineering graduate from IIT Bombay, started his career as an analyst at the consulting firm Deloitte. He was one of the first members of Citizens of Accountable Governance, which later evolved into I-PAC. Arvind Kejriwal, M.K. Stalin, Jaganmohan Reddy, Uddhav Thackeray, Rahul Gandhi, and Nitish Kumar are just a few of the prominent figures with whom the political consultancy firm has collaborated.…
