‘Mati Handed to Infiltrators’: PM Modi Targets TMC in Bengal Campaign
Kolkata: Prime Minister Narendra Modi intensified the political battle in West Bengal during the last leg of assembly election campaigning, accusing the ruling Trinamool Congress (TMC) government of harming the state’s identity and security. PM Modi alleged that Bengal’s “mati” (soil/land) had been handed over to infiltrators under TMC rule.
Addressing rallies in North 24 Parganas and Hooghly, PM Modi also criticized the Mamata Banerjee government over unemployment, women’s safety and governance. He claimed that unemployment in West Bengal had reached a dangerous level during TMC’s 15-year rule.
Women Voters and BJP Focus
PM Modi said women in Bengal were strongly supporting BJP because they had suffered the most under the present government. BJP leaders have made women’s safety and welfare a major election issue in the state.
Mamata Banerjee Hits Back
West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee responded sharply and said “BJP dar gaya” (BJP is scared). She also raised concerns about the Election Commission and alleged irregularities related to EVM strongrooms.
High-Stakes Bengal Election Battle
The political atmosphere in West Bengal remains intense as campaigning nears its end for the second and final phase of polling. The remaining 142 constituencies are set to vote on April 29, while results are expected on May 4.
Why This Election Matters
The West Bengal election is being seen as a direct contest between:
- TMC, led by Mamata Banerjee
- BJP, aiming to unseat the ruling party
- Left and Congress alliance trying to regain ground
The outcome could have a major impact on national politics ahead of future elections.
Conclusion
With PM Modi sharpening attacks and Mamata Banerjee countering aggressively, West Bengal’s final campaign phase has turned into a high-voltage political showdown. All eyes are now on polling day and the final results.
