The Bharatiya Janata Party convened a high-profile felicitation dinner at the official residence of outgoing National President J P Nadda in New Delhi on Wednesday evening, honoring over 45 key leaders and grassroots workers instrumental in propelling the National Democratic Alliance to a resounding landslide victory in the 2025 Bihar Assembly elections, where the coalition secured more than 200 seats in the 243-member house.
The gathering united prominent figures such as Union Home Minister Amit Shah, National General Secretary (Organisation) B L Santhosh, and a contingent of MPs and MLAs deployed from across states to bolster the Bihar campaign, serving as a platform to reinforce the party's ethos of organizational cohesion and collective endeavor in the wake of a triumph that has bolstered Prime Minister Narendra Modi's national political stature.
In his address to the assembly, Shah, acknowledged as the mastermind behind the NDA's strategic dominance, lauded the seamless teamwork that dismantled the opposition Mahagathbandhan's defenses and exhorted attendees to sustain this momentum toward the vision of a developed India, issuing a direct directive: "Be ready to conquer Bengal after conquering Bihar," thereby signaling an imminent escalation of BJP's offensive in the eastern state.

Shah issued a stern admonition against the perils of personal aggrandizement, cautioning that attributing success to individual prowess fosters hubris and undermines the party's foundational commitment to filling organizational voids wherever they arise, emphasizing that any cadre member could be mobilized to any corner of West Bengal as the party prepares for what it envisions as its next pivotal electoral conquest.
The event, as articulated by BJP National General Secretary Vinod Tawde in a subsequent social media update, not only expressed profound gratitude to the tireless operatives whose on-ground exertions clinched the Bihar mandate but also underscored the BJP's distinctive tradition of morale elevation through recognition, with Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Vijay Kumar Sinha echoing sentiments of indebtedness to the central leadership while pledging renewed vigor to fortify party structures and accelerate Bihar's developmental trajectory.
