Union Home Minister Amit Shah delivered a strong critique of the Trinamool Congress (TMC) during a rally in Onda, Bankura, West Bengal, asserting that the countdown to the end of TMC's 'syndicate rule' has begun. He urged voters to support the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in the upcoming elections, promising to hold accountable those involved in local syndicates that have exploited the populace. Shah highlighted the economic decline under TMC, claiming nearly 7,000 industries have left West Bengal due to unfavorable conditions, which has led to increased poverty. He assured that a BJP government would revitalize the state's economy by bringing in new industries and creating jobs. Additionally, he pledged to ensure women's safety, stating that the BJP would take action against anyone disrespecting women in the state. Shah also mentioned plans to enhance revenue from agriculture by facilitating the sale of Bengal's potatoes to neighboring states like Orissa.
