Agartala, Nov 6 (PTI) The ruling BJP on Friday filed nomination papers for all 51 wards of the Agartala Municipal Corporation (AMC), with Chief Minister Manik Saha expressing confidence that the party would secure a bigger mandate in the November 27 civic elections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The nomination papers were submitted at the office of the Sub-Divisional Magistrate (SDM), Sadar, in the presence of Saha and senior party leaders. A large number of party workers and supporters accompanied the candidates during the filing process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ahead of the exercise, the chief minister held a meeting with party candidates and organisational leaders at the State Guest House to discuss the election strategy and preparations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Addressing party workers, Saha said the BJP would seek votes on the basis of its development record and welfare initiatives implemented across urban and rural areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said the party’s priority was to serve people throughout the year rather than become active only during elections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The chief minister maintained that the BJP’s political philosophy centred on ensuring that government benefits and development programmes reached every section of society, particularly those at the grassroots level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Referring to the large gathering during the nomination filing, Saha said it reflected the enthusiasm of party workers and supporters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Expressing confidence about the party’s electoral prospects, he said the BJP expected to perform well in Agartala as well as other urban local bodies across the state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The party was confident of retaining control of civic bodies and improving its previous electoral performance, he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Saha urged candidates to intensify public outreach, maintain regular interaction with residents and highlight the government’s achievements during the campaign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He also appealed to party functionaries to ensure a peaceful electoral atmosphere and keep the campaign focused on development and local issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Taking a swipe at opposition parties, the chief minister claimed that rival parties were facing internal differences, while asserting that the BJP remained united and prepared for the electoral contest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With nominations filed in all 51 wards, the BJP has completed its candidate nomination exercise for the AMC elections scheduled for November 27.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Urban infrastructure, civic amenities, development initiatives and welfare programmes are expected to figure prominently in the campaign as political parties prepare for the municipal contest.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
