After the BJP got its first Rajya Sabha member from Puducherry, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Tuesday that it was a matter of immense pride for every member of the party.
He also congratulated Union Ministers Sarbananda Sonowal (who is also the ex-Chief Minister of Assam) and L Murugan on being elected to the Rajya Sabha from Assam and Madhya Pradesh respectively.
Taking "immense pride,' Modi tweeted,
It is a matter of immense pride for every BJP Karyakarta that our Party has got it’s first ever Rajya Sabha MP from Puducherry in Shri S. Selvaganabathy Ji. The trust placed in us by the people of Puducherry is humbling. We will keep working for Puducherry’s progress.
