Recalling the first time he contested the Varanasi constituency in 2014, he said he went into the elections with the resolve to meet people’s aspirations and work for the welfare and well-being of the "poorest of the poor".

He said over the last decade of the BJP-led NDA government under his leadership, Kashi has made rapid strides across sectors.

“In 2014, I went to Kashi with a commitment to fulfil people’s dreams and empower the poorest of the poor. Over the last ten years, we have made significant progress across various sectors and worked towards a better Kashi. These efforts will continue with even greater vigour,” PM Modi posted on X.

“I would also like to convey a special gratitude to the people of Kashi for their blessings, which I cherish greatly,” he added.

Affirming that the party candidates will go to the people on the weight of the government’s “track record of good governance”, PM Modi posted, “Our party has announced candidates for some of the seats and will be announcing the rest in the coming days. I congratulate all those who have been nominated as our Party’s candidates and wish them the very best. We are going to the people on the basis of our track record of good governance and ensuring the fruits of progress reach the poorest of the poor.”
