On Monday, Prime Minister Modi said the BJP will be in charge of the next government in West Bengal and will return after May 4th to be at a BJP Chief Minister’s swearing-in. He criticized the Trinamool Congress while in Barrackpore on the last day of campaigning before April 29th, and promised “poribarton”.
Modi predicts BJP victory after May 4
At a “Victory Resolution” meeting in Barrackpore, Modi said he’s feeling a very strong desire for change all over Bengal. He told the people who were supporting him that the people of West Bengal are like his family and he will come back after May 4th to the BJP Chief Minister’s swearing-in.
He said this moment will be a part of history, and is certain that political change is going to happen. He used “poribarton” a lot to describe the shift he believes is coming to the state, presenting it as something the public wants and is definitely going to occur.
Here are the key statements he made at the rally:
– BJP will form the next Bengal government
– He will attend a BJP CM’s oath after May 4
– Poriborton in the state is near
Attack on TMC and call for poriborton
Modi strongly attacked the Trinamool Congress, saying the government hasn’t actually done anything for the state. He asked people to vote for change, saying many are unhappy with the current government.
He believes the campaign made it very clear that people are moving away from the current party in power. He says that feeling will become a strong, firm decision to vote for the BJP after all the voting is over.
Barrackpore’s symbolism and emotional pitch
Remembering the 1857 Revolt, Modi said that Barrackpore, where the first fight for independence happened, will again start a change. He says the land that began the fight for freedom will now lead the way for political change in Bengal.
Modi mixed his political points with a personal message, thanking people for all their love and support. He described traveling around Bengal as being like visiting a Devi (goddess) temple, and said the campaign itself felt spiritual. He remembered the eleven-day special practices he did during the Ram Lalla ceremony in January of 2024 and said he felt the same devotion.
Eastern India’s role in development
The Prime Minister emphasized that eastern India is essential to the country’s growth. He mentioned old areas like Anga (in Bihar), Banga (in Bengal), and Kalinga (in Odisha), and said they were strong parts of the country’s wealth in the past.
He thinks India cannot reach its goals for progress unless these eastern states improve. He said making the region stronger is needed for the country’s future and for India to become a developed nation.
What comes next in West Bengal
Modi made these statements as all the political activity was at its highest point before the voting on April 29th. He wanted to present the election as a crucial moment, and “poribarton” as the main promise.
Finally, the Prime Minister repeated how sure he is that the BJP will win. He said he will be back after May 4th, and made it clear he’s planning to be at the swearing-in of the BJP Chief Minister in West Bengal.
