New Delhi, April 10 (NationPress) On Friday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi shared captivating glimpses from the Asansol rally, emphasizing that the people of West Bengal are rallying behind the BJP’s development agenda and are unlikely to support the Trinamool Congress.

Using the social media platform X, PM Modi stated, “Here’s a glimpse of the enthusiasm in Asansol yesterday. West Bengal is firmly backing the BJP’s development agenda and will not support TMC.”

The 1 minute and 18 seconds long video posted by the Prime Minister showcases large crowds energetically waving at him and chanting slogans in his favor. The visuals reflect a vibrant atmosphere, demonstrating public support for PM Modi and the Bharatiya Janata Party.

This post by the Prime Minister underscores the party’s commitment to expanding its political influence in West Bengal, where the BJP has been actively working to solidify its presence in recent years.

During the Asansol rally, a striking image emerged as an individual in the crowd displayed a poster directed at the Prime Minister.

This person held a poster featuring PM Modi's image alongside a map of West Bengal, with a clear message: “Respected Modi ji, Please save West Bengal.” The poster also highlighted pressing issues such as “Corruption, law and order, infiltration, women's safety, and unemployment.”

These concerns align with the main themes that the Bharatiya Janata Party has been addressing while criticizing the current Trinamool Congress government in the state.

The visual quickly gained attention amid the rally, symbolizing the heightened political climate as parties ramp up their campaigns ahead of the state elections.

PM Modi launched a fierce critique of the Trinamool Congress government, alleging that a ruling-party-affiliated syndicate and mafia are plundering the state’s resources, warning that all involved will be held accountable following the election results on May 4.

In his address at his second election rally in Asansol, he attributed West Bengal’s “shameful decline from prosperity to deprivation” to past administrations ranging from Congress to Trinamool Congress, asserting that the BJP’s good governance is the sole remedy for West Bengal's escalating issues.

Blaming the Mamata Banerjee government for regressing the state to the 'dark ages', the Prime Minister emphasized the necessity of liberating West Bengal from Trinamool's grasp for the sake of the state’s development.

“For Bengal’s advancement, liberation from Trinamool is essential, as while the entire nation is progressing rapidly, Trinamool is dragging Bengal backward,” he remarked.

“Trinamool's era is over. The next government will be a double-engine government led by the BJP. Post May 4, Bengal will embark on a new development journey,” he added.

This moment occurred as the election campaign in West Bengal intensified ahead of the forthcoming Assembly polls.

The state is scheduled to vote in two phases on April 23 and April 29.

The first phase will cover 152 Assembly constituencies, while the remaining 142 seats will be contested in the second phase. Vote counting is set for May 4.
