TMC doesn't allow Centre's schemes in West Bengal, people will teach lesson to ruthless govt: PM Modi
"Just as Vande Mataram became the proclamation of independence, we must also make Vande Mataram the mantra for developing West Bengal..."
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday alleged that the West Bengal government does not allow Central government schemes to reach the people of the state. He said the people of Bengal will now teach a lesson to the Trinamool Congress (TMC), just as people did to the earlier Delhi government.
Addressing a large gathering in Singur, Hooghly, PM Modi said he is constantly striving to serve the people of the state. However, he added, “The TMC government here does not even allow the central government's schemes to reach you properly...”
“I understand their enmity towards me and the BJP, but the TMC is taking out its enmity on the people of Bengal,” he added.
Drawing a parallel with Delhi, the Prime Minister said, "There was a similar government in Delhi that did not allow the central schemes to be implemented... therefore, the people of Delhi showed them the door,” he further said.
He added, “People of Bengal have resolved that the people here are going to teach a lesson to the ruthless TMC government so that a BJP government is formed here too and the Ayushman Bharat scheme is implemented in Bengal as well.”
Talking about improving the state’s economy, PM Modi said industries would be established and investments would come only when the law and order situation improves. He alleged that “but in Bengal, rioters, looters, and mafias have been given free rein.”
He further alleged that a syndicate tax is imposed on everything in the state and said that only his party would end the tax and “mafia rule,” calling the promise “Modi's guarantee.”
Referring to the BJP’s victory in the recent Bihar elections and expressing confidence of repeating it in West Bengal, PM Modi said, “BJP has once again stopped jungleraj in Bihar, and now West Bengal is also ready to bid farewell to TMC's mega-jungleraj...”
150 years of Vande Mataram and West Bengal
Prime Minister Modi also spoke about Vande Mataram and its connection to Hooghly, West Bengal. He said the country has celebrated the 150th anniversary of Vande Mataram and that a special discussion was held in Parliament.
He added that the entire country has paid homage with reverence to Rishi Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay.
“The connection between Hooghly and Vande Mataram is even more special; it is said that it was right here that Rishi Bankim Ji gave Vande Mataram its full form. Just as Vande Mataram became the proclamation of independence, we must also make Vande Mataram the mantra for developing West Bengal and India,” PM Modi added.
West Bengal is expected to go to the polls in the next few months.
