Shah said, we want to assure the people of West Bengal and also want to promise that with the formation of BJP government in Bengal under the leadership of PM Modi, we will revive the heritage of this place. The Ganga of development will again flow at a fast pace. Will create such a strong national grid that will end infiltration from Bengal. Leave humans, even birds could not be killed. We will create this type of grid. Not only will the infiltration be stopped, the BJP government will also selectively expel all the infiltrators from India.

Amit Shah said that when someone crosses the border and infiltrates, where do they go first? They first enter the villages of Bengal. What is your Patwari doing? What is your police station doing? Why are they not arrested? Why are cases not registered against them? Why are they not sent back? Do you have answers to these questions? Can the Chief Minister of Bengal answer this? Why has infiltration stopped in Assam? Why has it stopped in Tripura? Why is there no infiltration on the borders of Gujarat and Rajasthan? Why doesn’t this happen on the Punjab border? Why doesn’t this happen on Kashmir border? Why does this happen only in Bengal? Because infiltration is being done under your supervision and you are trying to strengthen your vote bank by gradually changing the population of Bengal.

The Home Minister said, I want to share the results of our electoral journey from 2014 to 2024. In the 2014 Lok Sabha elections, we got 17% votes and won 2 seats. In the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, we got 41% votes and won 18 seats and in the 2021 Assembly elections, we got 38% votes and 77 seats. This is a huge difference. A party which had just 3 seats managed to win 77 seats in just five years. As a result, the Congress, which was actually founded in Bengal, reached zero. I am confident that in 2026, BJP will form the government in Bengal with two-thirds majority. The people of Bengal have already taken their decision.
