Bengaluru: Leader of Opposition in Karnataka Assembly R. Ashoka said the election results show that Narendra Modi is the most suitable leader for the country’s security.

Speaking to the media, he claimed that the political future of Mamata Banerjee and her government has come to an end. He alleged that around two crore people from Bangladesh were helped to enter the country with Aadhaar cards.

Ashoka said that even though elections were held in five states, the entire country’s attention was on West Bengal. He attributed this to what he described as misgovernance in the state.

He further said there were continuous political allegations and objections related to CBI matters, and added that such developments have now come to an end with the latest election outcome.
