Kolkata (West Bengal) [India], December 20 (ANI): Trinamool Congress (TMC) leader Tanmoy Ghosh expressed confidence that the Prime Minister’s visit to West Bengal today would not alter the state’s political landscape, asserting that “the soil of Bengal is not fertile for the divisive politics of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).”
“Narendra Modi is not only the Prime Minister of the BJP. He is the Prime Minister of the entire nation. We welcome his visit to Bengal at any time… But as far as the election is concerned, there is nothing to gain for the BJP. We saw in 2021 that Narendra Modi and Amit Shah visited Bengal many times. But nothing happened. Because the people of Bengal rely upon Trinamool Congress… This time also there will be no change… The soil of Bengal is not fertile for the divisive politics of the BJP,’ he asserted.
PM Modi’s visit comes amid an intensifying political battle between the BJP and the TMC in West Bengal ahead of the upcoming electoral contests.
PM Modi will address the public and inaugurate multiple development projects worth ₹3,200 crore.
The Key projects to be inaugrated include a 66.7 km 4-lane stretch of the Barajaguli-Krishnanagar section of NH-34 and the laying of the foundation stone for the 4-laning of the Barasat-Barajaguli section of NH-34, which aims to improve connectivity between Kolkata and Siliguri.
The Prime Minister said in a post on X on Friday that while people in West Bengal are benefiting from the Centre’s multifaceted development projects, they continue to suffer due to what he described as the “misrule of the Trinamool Congress in every sector.”
Asserting that the BJP is now the “only hope and trust” of the people, Modi said the excesses of the ruling party had “crossed all limits.”
“Tomorrow, on the 20th of December, at noon, I will deliver a speech at the BJP public meeting in Ranaghat. The people of West Bengal are receiving the benefits of the central government’s multifaceted projects. However, at the same time, due to the misrule of the Trinamool Congress in every sector of the state, they are becoming victims of suffering. The looting and intimidation by the Trinamool have crossed all limits. That is why today, the BJP is the only hope and trust of the people”, PM Modi tweeted on X.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi will also visit Assam on December 20-21. He will reach Guwahati today around 3 pm. In Guwahati, he will inaugurate the new Bamboo Orchids terminal at the airport, unveil an 80-foot-tall statue of Lokpriya Gopinath Bordoloi, and lay the foundation stone for a new 12 lakh MT-capacity fertiliser unit in Namrup, Dibrugarh district.
