Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday announced that May 4 would signify the 'expiry' of the TMC's 15-year dominance in West Bengal, as votes are counted. Speaking at a rally in Kakdwip, he insisted that high voter turnout showed the end of a regime of fear imposed by the TMC.
Modi criticized the alleged corruption under TMC, claiming no sector in Bengal operates without bribes and that the TMC's rule resembles a 'maha jungle raj.' He outlined numerous broken promises by the current government, including stalled infrastructure projects and missing development initiatives.
The prime minister also accused TMC of blocking central projects and criticized their alignment with Congress against BJP's goals, including women's reservation. Modi pledged special assistance for South Bengal's fishing communities and reinforced BJP's strict stance on border infiltration.
