Modi, Amit Shah’s next target West Bengal?

Prime Minister Narendra Modi and BJP President Amit Shah both seem to be strategically spreading their party wings to one by one state. Because of their strategic moves, BJP comes into power in Congress ruled Maharashtra and Haryana states recently. They are now eyeing Jharkhand, Jammu and Kashmir states which are now in the polling process.

Modi, in his elections campaigning held in Jammu & Kashmir state said, “I came to your state two times in a short span of six months with several development proposals and once again came to you with the same proposals. I want to make an all-round development of the state which has been ignored for decades by previous governments. The huge funds being released by the Centre for the state development are going to some local politicians’ pockets. So, it is time to remove such corrupted politicians with a government that is assuring you all for development.”

While, Narendra Modi is concentrating on both these states, Amit Shah appears to be concentrating on West Bengal, which keeps BJP at bay until now. West Bengal government has denied permission to Amit Shah’s party rally in Kolkata, but after three consequent attempts, he was able to get permission from the State High Court permission to his rally held yesterday.

He strongly criticized state Chief Minister Mamata Benarji for failing to develop the state despite coming into power with overwhelming support from the people. He said that unless the state comes under Modi rule, people can’t expect any development from Mamata Benarji government. He asked why her government is trying to protect the accused in Sharada scam. He strongly condemned her government for letting Bangladesh people infiltrate into the state merely to increase her vote bank. He appealed the people to give his BJP a chance in the upcoming Municipal and state Assembly elections to prove itself.”

He made it clear that the BJP’s victory crusade would not be complete without winning the West Bengal Assembly poll. He said the countdown to the ruling Trinamool Congress’ collapse had begun. He said "Our electoral victories in Maharashtra, Haryana and the near future success in Jharkhand and Jammu and Kashmir would have no meaning till we win Bengal. We will start with winning the Kolkata civic polls in May next and conclude the success story with the 2016 Assembly polls.”

So, Amit Shah has made it clear that their next target is West Bengal and so is he focusing full attention on the state and so is the ruling Trinamool Congress party is also worrying.
