Prime Minister Narendra Modi today launched a scathing attack on the Mamata Banerjee-led TMC government in West Bengal, stressing that the end of the ruthless government in Bengal is inevitable now. He said, “Change in Bengal is now written on the walls and etched in the hearts of Bengal’s people as well.”
PM Modi asserted that the countdown has begun for those who brought jungle raj to Bengal, and the day is not far when the rule of law will return to Bengal. “Whoever breaks the law will not be spared, and the atrocities of TMC will not be spared. No matter how much this ruthless government tries now, it will not be able to stop this storm of change. Maa Durga is with BJP-NDA…,” said PM Modi.

While addressing the massive public rally at the Brigade Ground in Kolkata, PM Modi thanked the people in Bengali.
Noting the historical significance of the Brigade Ground, the Prime Minister said, “The history of Brigade Parade Ground bears witness that whenever Bengal shows the country the way, this Brigade ground becomes the voice of Bengal. The voice that rose from this field against the English regime turned into a revolution in Hindustan. Its result was that the atrocities and plunder of the English came to an end. Today once again, the bugle of the revolution for a new Bengal has sounded from Brigade Ground…”
During his address, PM Modi also accused the TMC government of pulling out all its weapons to stop this gathering. He said, “To prevent you all from coming, they had bridges closed, vehicles stopped, traffic jammed, BJP flags uprooted, and posters torn down. But the ruthless government, take a clear look: you could not stop today’s sea of people…”
Earlier today, PM Modi unveiled connectivity projects worth Rs 18,680 crore in the state, saying a new chapter of India’s development was being written from the state. PM also laid the foundation stone for five sections of the 231 km-long four-lane Kharagpur-Moregram economic corridor, which will reduce the distance by around 120 km and save nearly seven to eight hours. The road, which is part of the economic corridor between Kharagpur and Siliguri, will pass through Paschim Medinipur, Bankura, Hooghly, Purba Bardhaman, Birbhum and Murshidabad districts, officials said.
