A political clash erupted on Friday as Prime Minister Narendra Modi criticized the Trinamool Congress (TMC) for the 'anarchy' at Jadavpur University (JU) in Kolkata, West Bengal. Modi claimed that the university, once a symbol of excellence, now faces threats and anti-national sentiments. In response, Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee condemned Modi's remarks, asserting that JU students are meritorious and that their ability to question authority is not anarchy but a sign of education and excellence. This confrontation occurred during a series of political rallies across seven districts in West Bengal, as both the BJP and TMC gear up for the state elections scheduled for April 29. JU has historically been a hub for Leftist politics and has seen significant student activism against various government policies. The TMC's leadership, including Banerjee and her nephew Abhishek Banerjee, expressed confidence in their electoral prospects, claiming they would secure unexpected victories. The political atmosphere remains charged as both parties prepare for the final phase of campaigning.
