At a rally in Debra, Paschim Medinipur district, Union Home Minister Amit Shah criticized West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee for engaging in dynastic politics, alleging that her primary objective is to make her nephew Abhishek Banerjee the chief minister. Shah contrasted this with the Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) commitment to job creation and welfare initiatives aimed at improving the lives of Bengal's residents. He participated in a roadshow to support BJP candidate Dilip Ghosh and launched the party's manifesto in Kolkata, where he condemned the Trinamool Congress government for issues such as illegal infiltration, corruption, job scams, and women's safety. Shah also highlighted the promise of implementing a Uniform Civil Code, which aims to consolidate Hindu support amid the Trinamool Congress's efforts to strengthen its Muslim voter base.
