He commended the tireless efforts of BJP workers, whose dedication played a pivotal role in connecting with voters across the state. This victory marks a significant milestone for the BJP, which had previously won 41 seats in the 2019 elections.

While the BJP emerged as the dominant force in Arunachal Pradesh, other political parties secured a limited share of seats. The National People’s Party (NPP) managed to secure five seats, while the People’s Party of Arunachal and the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) won two and three seats, respectively. The Congress, however, faced a setback with only one seat to its credit, while independent candidates emerged victorious in three constituencies.

Turning to Sikkim, the SKM reaffirmed its popularity by securing a decisive victory, winning 21 out of the 32 assembly seats. Led by Chief Minister Prem Singh Tamang, commonly known as P.S.
