Narendra Modi meets Bappi Lahiri
Bappi Lahiri
(Singer, composer and losing BJP candidate from Serampore)
This is a historic win for the party. Today, the only name in the country is Narendra Modi who campaigned for me. I didn’t win but I saw that coming. BJP swept Bihar and UP but in West Bengal it won just two seats and I don’t have to spell out the reason. But the love I got from the people is a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
I may not have been elected to the Lok Sabha but nor was Arun Jaitley or Smiriti Irani, but we are still BJP heavyweights and will work for the party. I’ve ordered a gold lotus which I will wear on a chain around my neck. I had composed a song for the party, ‘Atalji ko pranam, Modiji ko pranam, Rajnathji ke sapne honge sakaar, Modiji karenge Bharat mein chamatkar’. The words are ringing true today. Wah..
