What Trump told Modi after big win in the Uttar Pradesh elections
With the BJP winning big in Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand, here is what Donald Trump had to tell Modi.
United States President Donald Trump was impressed with the manner in which the Bharatiya Janata Party won the elections in Uttar Pradesh. He took time off to call Prime Minister Narendra Modi and congratulate him on the big UP victory.
The White House said that Trump called Modi and congratulated him on the big wins in the recently held assembly elections. It was a short call and Trump sought to congratulate Modi.
The BJP earned big victories in UP and Uttarakhand. The party also managed to form governments in Goa and Manipur. However, in Punjab it was the Congress that formed the government after winning a clear majority.
Trump also rang German Chancellor Angela Merkel and congratulated her on her election victory. Her conservatives won a regional election in the western state of Saarland on Sunday. The win was a significant one as it boosts her chance of winning a fourth term in the elections to be held in September. Her party the Christian Democrats won 40.7 per cent of the vote, up from 35.2 per cent in the previous election in Saarland in 2012.
