At a recent campaign rally in Krishnanagar, Nadia district, West Bengal, Prime Minister Narendra Modi declared that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) plans to celebrate its expected victory in the upcoming state elections by distributing sweets and jhalmuri, a popular local snack, on May 4. Modi emphasized the significance of jhalmuri, stating, "I ate the jhalmuri, but the jhal (spice) hit Trinamool," as he criticized the ruling Trinamool Congress party led by Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee. He asserted that the BJP is gaining momentum, drawing parallels between the current political climate and the past opposition to the Communist Party in West Bengal. Modi urged voters to support the BJP, promising a new era of good governance post-election, contrasting the BJP's principles of inclusivity with the alleged corruption of the Trinamool Congress. The second phase of voting is scheduled for April 29.
