Mamata Banerjee Manifesto: Trinamool Congress has released its manifesto before the West Bengal Assembly elections. Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee said that I appeal to the people of Bengal to unite and fight against BJP to save Bengal. If central agencies are trying to scare you, don’t be afraid. If she’s trying to give you money, don’t take the money. They bring money and weapons, bring mafia from border areas and try to incite unrest and riots here. I am not doing divisive politics. Hindus, Muslims, Sikhs and Christians, all are equal. Releasing the manifesto, West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee said that ‘Lakshmi Bhandar’ Under the scheme, women from the general category will get Rs 1,500 every month and women from the SC/ST category will get Rs 1,700 every month. Youth who are unemployed will get Rs 1,500 every month as pocket money.

I humbly present my 10 ‘Protigya’ for Bengal, so that the wheels of development continue to move forward in the fourth term of my government.
