“People have already blessed us”: BJP candidates seek divine blessings at temples
With vote counting for the West Bengal Legislative Assembly elections 2026 approaching, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) candidates across key constituencies were seen offering prayers at temples, seeking divine blessings ahead of the crucial electoral outcome.
In Kolkata, BJP candidate from the Shyampukur Assembly constituency, Purnima Chakraborty, visited the Shri Durgeshwar Mahadev (Mota Mahadev) Temple, where she offered prayers and expressed confidence in her party’s performance.
“The people have already blessed us. We will also receive the blessings of God. Tomorrow, ‘Dharma’ will triumph; it will be the victory of Bengal’s people, Bengal’s culture, the youth, and the mothers. I came here today to seek the blessings of God… TMC is losing, and out of fear of defeat, they are resorting to all sorts of propaganda.
On May 4, the lotus flower will bloom here, and a BJP government is coming to power. Under the leadership of PM Modi, Bengal is going to move forward,” Ms. Chakraborty told ANI.
