During a campaign rally in Bhabanipur, West Bengal, Union Home Minister Amit Shah outlined the Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) strategy to defeat Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee in her political stronghold. Shah emphasized that winning in Bhabanipur would signal a broader political change in West Bengal, asserting that the BJP is determined to secure a strong mandate in the state. He criticized the Mamata Banerjee government for rising corruption and a lack of job opportunities for the youth, claiming that the political mood is shifting in favor of the BJP. Shah stated that the party aims to secure around 170 seats in the upcoming assembly elections, promoting the vision of transforming West Bengal into 'Shonar Bangla'. He participated in a roadshow alongside Suvendu Adhikari, the BJP candidate for Bhabanipur, showcasing party strength in a region traditionally dominated by the Trinamool Congress. Shah's remarks reflect the BJP's focus on development and governance, contrasting it with the current administration's record. Prime Minister Narendra Modi is also expected to join the campaign in Bhabanipur as the elections approach.
