Prime Minister Narendra Modi wrote a personalised letter to all BJP and National Democratic Alliance (NDA) candidates contesting in the first phase of Lok Sabha elections. This letter is part of a massive exercise by the BJP to reach everyone in a constituency with the PM's message.
In a letter to Tamil Nadu BJP Chief, K Annamalai, who is contesting from the Coimbatore Lok Sabha seat, the Prime Minister wrote, "I congratulate you on your decision to leave a prestigious job and commit to serving the people directly. You have been truly instrumental in fortifying the BJP's grassroots presence across Tamil Nadu, championing critical issues including law enforcement, governance, and youth empowerment. Coimbatore stands to gain immensely from your committed leadership."
"With the blessings of the people, I am confident that you will reach the Parliament. Team members like you are a great asset for me. As a team, we will leave no stone unturned for the welfare of the people of constituency and the country," the Prime Minister further wrote.
"Through this letter, I would like to tell the people of your constituency that this is not an ordinary election. Families across India, especially the senior members, would remember the difficulties they have gone through in the 5-6 decades of Congress' rule. In the last 10 years, the quality of life of every section of society has improved, with many of these troubles removed. Yet, a lot more is still to be done and this election will be decisive in our mission to ensure a better life for everyone," he added.
The Prime Minister wrote letters to the candidates in regional languages as well. The candidates were pleasantly surprised to get this letter. They said they have resolved to make this letter reach each voter in their constituency.
