People are definitely going to bring change in West Bengal, BJP Chief Minister will be sworn in on May 5: Amit Shah

Home Minister Amit Shah declares BJP will form government in West Bengal on May 5, accusing Mamata Banerjee of fostering 'syndicate raj' and infiltration.

"This time, the people of Bengal are definitely going to bring change - Amit Shah"

By Suchitra Mukherjee, Durgapur, April 13

Home Minister Amit Shah on Monday expressed confidence of BJP's victory in the West Bengal assembly polls, saying people of Bengal are "definitely going to bring change" in the state in the assembly polls.

Talking with ANI during his road show here, he said a BJP Chief Minister will be sworn in in the state after the results are announced on May 4.

"This time, the people of Bengal are definitely going to bring change in Bengal, and on 5th (May), BJP Chief Minister will be sworn in here," he told ANI.

He was asked about the support the BJP is getting in the state for the assembly polls to be held on April 23 and 29.

Amit Shah, who earlier addressed rallies in Paschim Bardhaman and Birbhum, accused West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee of turning "Sonar Bangla into syndicate raj," and said "BJP will work on building Sonar Bangla" as envisioned by Guru Rabindranath Tagore

Amit Shah accused Mamata Banerjee of turning the slogan of "Maa, Maati, Maanush" into "mafia, muscleman and money power gang"."BJP will work on building Sonar Bangla as envisioned by Guru Rabindranath Tagore," he said.

He accused the Mamata Banerjee government of not giving the required land to complete border fencing.

"BSF needs 600 acres of land to fence the border. However, Mamata Didi refuses to give land, which leads to infiltration. Mamata ji shelters infiltrators, and they, in turn, elect her. On 4th May, the BJP Govt is going to be formed, and we will ensure that infiltrators are identified and removed from the country," he said

He said thousands of factories had moved out of Bengal during the Trinamool Congress rule.

"Mamata Didi has rendered the youth of Bengal--once considered the industrial hub of entire India--jobless," he said

The Union Minister also reiterated BJP promises of implementing the Uniform Civil Code and the 7th Pay Commission in West Bengal.

"It's time to say bye-bye to Mamata's government. Removing Mamata's government means creating an infiltrator-free Bengal. If you want to remove infiltrators from Bengal, only and only the BJP can do this job," he said.

Promises of UCC and 7th Pay Commission sound good, but we've heard many promises before. The real issue is jobs and industry. If BJP can bring back factories and opportunities for our youth, they will get support. Action matters more than words.

Using Gurudev Tagore's vision for political points? Hmm. Sonar Bangla needs peace and development, not just political slogans from any party. Let's hope whoever wins focuses on real governance, not just rhetoric.

As an observer, the language seems very confrontational. Accusing the CM of running a "syndicate raj" is a serious charge. Is there solid evidence for this, or is it just election talk? The focus should be on policy comparisons.

Change is definitely needed. The law and order situation has deteriorated. But BJP must remember Bengal's unique culture and not impose a one-size-fits-all approach. The promise to build Sonar Bangla is appealing if done respectfully.

May 5th prediction is very confident! The people of Bengal are wise and will decide based on their ground reality. No outsider can fully understand the local issues. Let's wait for the results with patience.
