Assembly Election 2024: Union Home Minister Amit Shah in a rally vowed to form a Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government in West Bengal by 2026. He said that the BJP will form the government in Bengal with a huge majority and it will be transformed into 'Sonar Bangla' (Golden Bengal). He launched a scathing attack on the Mamata Banerjee-led Trinamool Congress (TMC) government and the Left regime, saying that it is necessary to free Bengal from 'terror' and 'corruption'. Amit Shah categorically stated that the BJP will bring a new political culture in the state, which will take concrete action on the issues of corruption and violence.Vow to make Bengal a BJP strongholdAmit Shah called for strengthening the support of the BJP in Bengal. He said that despite Mamata Banerjee's party defeating the BJP in the elections, the BJP rule will be established in the 2026 elections. In his speech, Shah said, "The people of Bengal have to get out of the misconceptions of Mamata Banerjee. We are the BJP, which works for the country, not for any 'nephew' to become the chief minister. Our aim is to make Bengal a stronghold of the BJP."Call to make one crore membersAmit Shah called for intensifying the BJP's membership drive in Bengal, in which he set a target of making one crore new members. He stressed that the BJP does not do politics of caste, religion or a particular family, but works for the welfare of the country. Shah said, "In BJP, even an ordinary worker can become the Prime Minister. Whoever joins the BJP, joins with the responsibility of making India great and Vishwaguru."Concern over the safety of mothers and sistersHighlighting the safety of women in Bengal, Amit Shah expressed concern over the increasing incidents of violence and insecurity in the state. He said that incidents like RG Car and Sandeshkhali prove that mothers and sisters are not safe in Bengal. Shah alleged that the state government was encouraging infiltration and corruption and the only way to stop it was to bring the BJP to power in 2026. "In Bengal, bomb blasts are being heard instead of Rabindra Sangeet, it is necessary to form a BJP government to stop this."MNREGA corruption issueAmit Shah raised the issue of corruption in the MNREGA scheme in Bengal and said that the money of the scheme is going into the hands of 'syndicate' instead of the public. He assured that when the BJP government is formed, every penny will be accounted for and the benefits will be delivered to the real needy. "When the BJP government is formed in 2026, we will ensure that the money of the public reaches the public," he said.Dream of Sonar BanglaAmit Shah called upon the youth and people of Bengal to join the BJP and said that they should become partners in the creation of 'Sonar Bangla'. He stressed that the BJP's goal is to free the state from the rule of the Communists and Mamata Didi. He said that "BJP in Bengal means the end of terror and corruption, and realising the dream of Sonar Bangla."ConclusionAmit Shah's vow to form a BJP government in Bengal by 2026 could pose a major political challenge in West Bengal. From the BJP's membership drive to the promise of 'Sonar Bangla', Shah has presented a clear roadmap for the BJP in Bengal. If the BJP successfully achieves its objectives, it could prove to be a new chapter not only for Bengal but also for Indian politics.
