Uttar

Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath mentioned in a post on X, “Heartiest

congratulations to all the dedicated workers of the Bharatiya Janata Party, the

world's largest political party, on its foundation day. @BJP4India is not just

a political structure, but a vibrant tradition of thought, nurtured by the

lofty democratic ideals and virtuous Sanatan values of revered Pandit

Deendayal Upadhyaya, Dr. Shyama Prasad Mukherjee, and 'Bharat Ratna' revered

Atal ji. This nationalist family, imbued with the spirit of Nation First, has

today become a huge banyan tree, constantly empowering the hopes and

aspirations of 1.45 billion citizens with a resolve of service, culture, and

dedication. This development journey of the BJP is not about power, but about

culture. It is not about expansion, but about thought. The pledge of 'Rashtra

Udaya from Antyodaya' has been accomplished. The loyalty, consistency, and

selflessness of every worker have accelerated the resolve of 'Developed India -

Self-reliant India.' Congratulations to all the eminent personalities

participating in this journey of nation-building.”
