Swapan Dasgupta, the newly sworn-in Cabinet Minister from the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in West Bengal, launched a fierce critique of the Trinamool Congress (TMC), claiming the party has left the state in a state of devastation. He stated that the first task of the new administration is to remove 'kachhra' (garbage) as part of a broader reconstruction effort. Dasgupta highlighted the need for structural development, governance reforms, and restoring law and order as top priorities. He acknowledged the challenges of regaining investor confidence and addressing corruption within public administration. Additionally, he confirmed that the BJP will not accept any defectors from the TMC in the near future. The cabinet expansion saw 35 new ministers sworn in, increasing the Council of Ministers to 41 under Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari, indicating a significant reshuffle aimed at strengthening governance across various sectors.
