In a blistering critique from Patna, Union Minister Giriraj Singh forecasted a humiliating defeat for West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee in her Bhabanipur stronghold. Speaking to reporters on Thursday, he quipped, ‘She won’t save her own seat – how can she dream of saving her government?’
The BJP leader didn’t hold back, alleging Banerjee’s vision was to transform Bengal into a Bangladesh-like state. Her fixation on the Sri Lanka crisis, he claimed, is a desperate ploy amid crumbling support. ‘Bhabanipur is slipping away, and so is her grip on power,’ Singh predicted.
Echoing PM Modi’s accusations, Singh detailed TMC’s 15-year reign of corruption. ‘They’ve bled the state dry, dodging real issues like joblessness and poverty. The PM’s words ring true: time for accountability under Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas,’ he stated.
Turning to election violence, Singh issued a direct challenge to TMC enforcers. ‘Those goons scaring voters, listen up – BJP’s wave will sweep Bengal this time. Hooliganism won’t be tolerated; justice will prevail.’
Shifting to policy, he lauded the push for women’s quotas. ‘Under Modi, women’s empowerment is paramount, embedded in every initiative. Strengthening democracy demands more women in legislatures,’ Singh noted.
As Bengal gears up for voting on April 23 and 29 across 294 seats, with counts on May 4, the air is thick with campaign fervor. Rallies are drawing massive crowds, underscoring the fierce contest ahead.
