Kolkata, Nov 23 (NationPress) Following the massive electoral triumph in the recent Bihar Assembly elections, the BJP's central leadership is gearing up for a prominent campaign featuring both Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah for the upcoming 2026 West Bengal Assembly elections starting next month.
The preliminary strategy includes hosting at least two significant public rallies each month in the state leading up to the announcement of the election dates for the 2026 Assembly elections in West Bengal. One rally will be led by the Prime Minister, while the other will be addressed by the Union Home Minister.
"Once the polling dates are revealed, the frequency of these public gatherings will increase. Our state party president, Samik Bhattacharya, is traveling to Delhi this week to finalize the tentative dates and venues for these monthly rallies until the election dates are disclosed. We aim to hold these events in locations that can simultaneously reach multiple districts," stated a member of the BJP state committee in West Bengal.
Currently, the BJP is approaching the campaign in West Bengal in a phased manner, dividing the state into five organizational zones.
In the wake of the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) victory in Bihar, party leaders have adopted a rallying cry: "After Odisha in 2024 and Bihar in 2025, it will be Bengal in 2026."
Political analysts believe that the BJP's early planning for extensive campaign rallies in West Bengal, featuring both the Prime Minister and the Union Home Minister, indicates that the slogan is not merely a rallying cry but highlights the seriousness with which the central BJP leadership is addressing the West Bengal elections.
A BJP state committee member noted that in addition to traditional campaigning, the party's state leadership is prioritizing digital outreach this time, utilizing its newly launched Bengal-dedicated website, namoyavawarriors.com, which was officially unveiled earlier this month.
Individuals interested in participating in the BJP's digital outreach program for the West Bengal Assembly elections can register through this website.
The website details various objectives for which this digital outreach initiative has been established, including combating corruption, ensuring a transparent recruitment process for state government jobs, fostering a secure academic environment in educational institutions free from ragging and crimes against women, reviving the state's economic prosperity through new investments and entrepreneurship, and creating job opportunities for youth to prevent their forced migration in search of employment.
