The BJP’s first-ever government in West Bengal will be sworn in on May 9, the birth anniversary of Rabindranath Tagore, following the party’s sweeping victory in the state assembly elections on Monday.

This was revealed by Bengal BJP chief Samik Bhattarcharya to ANI as the process gathers pace for the BJP to pick its first-ever chief ministerial face for the state.

The date, coinciding with Tagore’s birth anniversary, reflects the BJP’s cultural symbolism in the political landscape of Bengal.
