Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav criticized the Trinamool Congress government in West Bengal, alleging that Bangladeshi infiltrators were being supported while Hindus faced disrespect under Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee’s leadership. Speaking at an event for BJP candidates’ nomination filing ahead of the West Bengal Assembly elections, Yadav expressed dissatisfaction with the current state government. He emphasized that the encouragement of Bangladeshi infiltrators and the humiliation of Hindus have been prevalent under the Trinamool Congress rule.
Yadav further stated that the Trinamool Congress regime has favored Bangladeshi infiltrators, leading to the systematic humiliation of the Hindu community. He highlighted that elections in a democracy offer an opportunity for people to address grievances accumulated during the Trinamool Congress’s 15-year tenure. The BJP has been actively campaigning in West Bengal as the state gears up for Assembly elections scheduled on April 23 and April 29, with results expected on May 4.
The issue of infiltration has become a significant focus for the BJP in West Bengal. Senior BJP leaders, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah, have accused the Trinamool Congress government of exploiting infiltrators for political gains, transforming Bengal into a hub for infiltrators and criminals. Yadav’s visit and statements are viewed as part of the BJP’s strategy to unite Hindu voters and spotlight the alleged shortcomings of the Trinamool Congress government concerning illegal immigration, law enforcement, and appeasement politics.
The Trinamool Congress has refuted these claims as unfounded and politically driven, asserting that the state government prioritizes the welfare of all communities. As nomination filing progresses and campaigning intensifies, discussions around infiltration and demographic shifts are expected to dominate the electoral dialogue in the upcoming weeks.
