The Dallas Chapter of the Overseas Friends of BJP (OFBJP-USA) celebrated the Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) electoral wins in the Indian states and Union Territory of West Bengal, Assam, and Puducherry, along with its electoral gains in the state of Kerala.
Attended by "scores of Indian Americans including men, women and children", the organizers noted that the event brought forth a "greater inspiration and a clear vision for protecting Bharat Mata."
The celebration kicked off with the National Anthems of both India and the United States, followed by the Indian National song, 'Vande Matram'.
The National Social Media Coordinator of OFBJP-USA, Nirmala Reddy, welcomed the guests and dignitaries before Dallas Coordinator Bhima Penta presented an overview of the West Bengal and Assam elections and highlighted OFBJP’s contribution during the campaigns for the respective states.
The gathering praised the leadership of the Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi in BJP's electoral contests, highlighting his "ability to overcome political opposition while upholding constitutional values and democratic principles," noted the organizers of the event.
Highlighting the significance of the political party's victory in the state of West Bengal, the celebration featured traditional Bengali delicacies such as jhalmuri and laddus.
