Formed on April 6, 1980, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) celebrated its 44th foundation day on Saturday. On this occasion, several party leaders in Pune took to X (formerly Twitter) to pay tribute to BJP stalwarts and express their reverence for the party's ideals. Some leaders also shared pictures of themselves unfurling the BJP flag.
Murlidhar Mohol, the party's candidate for the Pune Lok Sabha seat, expressed his pride in being associated with the party for over three decades. "During thirty years, there were many changes, successes, and failures, but the ideology of the party was never left behind. The party kept fighting and moving forward," he remarked. Mohol highlighted the inclusivity of the BJP by stating, "A party worker like me, who has no political background, can go on to become a Lok Sabha candidate from a party's polling agent; this can only happen in the BJP."
Shivajinagar MLA Siddharth Shirole expressed gratitude for being a worker of the world's largest political party, emphasising its commitment to service and national welfare. "Celebrating the 44th foundation day of the BJP by honouring the invaluable contributions of our senior leaders and dedicated karyakartas. Let's renew our pledge to tirelessly work towards realising the vision of a stronger, healthier, and more prosperous India," he affirmed.
