Prime Minister Narendra Modi received an overwhelming response during a high-energy roadshow in Kolkata, with thousands lining the streets, waving and capturing the moment on their phones.

The visuals reflected strong participation from women and youth, with enthusiastic supporters greeting the Prime Minister as his convoy passed through densely packed streets.
Sharp Attack on TMC Over Governance

In his remarks, Modi launched a direct attack on the Trinamool Congress (TMC), accusing the ruling party of neglecting urban governance and delaying key infrastructure projects.

He alleged that governance in Kolkata has suffered due to lack of planning and accountability, positioning BJP as a party focused on execution and delivery.

Promise of Infrastructure, Healthcare & Cultural Push

The Prime Minister outlined BJP’s roadmap for West Bengal, emphasizing:

Modern healthcare and education systems

Improved connectivity and urban infrastructure

Promotion of Bengali culture and literature

He assured voters that a BJP government would bring a “next-generation approach” to governance aligned with people’s aspirations.

‘Kolkata Keeps Winning Me Over’
Modi described the roadshow as “exceptional,” highlighting the visible enthusiasm among supporters. He noted that the strong turnout signals growing public support for BJP’s development-driven agenda in the state.
With elections approaching, the Kolkata roadshow is being seen as a key moment in shaping the political narrative in West Bengal.
