Bhabanipur: Union Home Minister Amit Shah launched a sharp political attack on the West Bengal government during his visit to Bhabanipur, directly taking on Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and her party.
“People Want Change in Bengal”
Addressing a gathering, Shah claimed that there is a growing demand across the state for a political shift. He said voices from different regions are echoing the same message—people want the current government replaced. According to him, this election could mark the end of Mamata Banerjee’s tenure in Bengal.
Strong Criticism of TMC Governance
Shah accused the ruling party of creating an environment of fear and corruption. He alleged that people in West Bengal are troubled by extortion, political violence, illegal infiltration, and rising unemployment. He also claimed that corruption and syndicate culture have made everyday life difficult for common citizens.
BJP’s Big Electoral Claim
Confident about his party’s prospects, Shah said the Bharatiya Janata Party is aiming to win around 170 seats in the state assembly. He emphasized that even a single victory in Bhabanipur could trigger a larger political change across Bengal.
Call for Fearless Voting
Shah urged voters not to be intimidated during elections. He encouraged people to come out and vote without fear, stating that no force should be allowed to stop them from exercising their democratic rights.
Focus on National Security and Development
Raising the issue of border security, Shah said stricter measures are needed to prevent illegal infiltration. He added that a BJP-led government would ensure stronger borders and better governance. He also linked development in other states to the leadership of Narendra Modi, suggesting that Bengal could follow a similar growth path under BJP rule.
“Time for Political Transformation”
Shah concluded by saying that the upcoming elections are an opportunity for Bengal to move towards development and stability. He urged voters to support the BJP, claiming it is the only way to bring lasting change in the state.
