During a rally in Mayureshwar, Birbhum district, West Bengal, Union Home Minister Amit Shah launched a fierce attack on the Trinamool Congress (TMC) led by Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, accusing it of corruption and a culture of violence. With the West Bengal Assembly elections approaching on April 23 and April 29, Shah positioned the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) as the solution to end 'cut money' corruption and restore safety in the state. He urged voters to 'answer the bomb with the ballot,' emphasizing that a 'double-engine government' would be formed after the May 4 results. Shah promised to implement the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) and the 7th Pay Commission for state employees, along with various social welfare initiatives, including ₹3,000 monthly assistance for women and unemployed youth, and ₹21,000 support for pregnant women. He criticized the TMC's governance, particularly regarding women's safety, and assured voters of secure polling with adequate measures from the Election Commission. Shah's remarks also included promises of free medical treatment and job reservations for women, aiming to foster a new era of development in West Bengal.
