BJP has no voters in Bengal. That is why they rely on the machinery of the Election Commission, Central Forces, and Central Agencies to somehow drag themselves over the line.
The mindless violence unleashed by Amit Shah’s ‘goonda bahini’ in uniform is a reflection of a party staring at imminent defeat. They have terrorised voters, harassed and assaulted women, the elderly, patients, and even children in a bid to suppress Bengal’s voice.
But no amount of intimidation, violence, or fear will save BJP from the people’s verdict.

Shri @abhishekaitc exercised his democratic right today, reaffirming that the strength of democracy lies in active public participation.
By casting his vote, he set an example, urging every citizen to step forward, make their voice heard, and uphold the democratic spirit that shapes Bengal’s future.
Central Forces under Amit Shah have become BJP’s PRIVATE ARMY- A gang of licensed thugs unleashed on the people of Bengal.
In Udaynarayanpur, an elderly man went to cast his vote with his son. Too frail to walk unaided, his son tried to help him into the booth. Central Forces pushed and manhandled both. The old man collapsed, was rushed to Amta Hospital and declared dead on arrival.
Since dawn, these Central Forces have been terrorising ordinary citizens- slapping women, assaulting the elderly, attacking even children. This is the SITALKUCHI MENTALITY of 2021: cold-blooded, merciless violence against unarmed civilians. BJP paid a heavy price for the blood of innocents in 2021. They will pay an even heavier price in 2026.
And to the JALLADS roaming Bengal: it doesn’t matter which state you come from. It doesn’t matter whose political patronage shields you. Every single one of you involved in this barbarism will be hunted down and made to face the full force of the law. Your reign of terror will end in total ruin.
This vote is for the Bengal we love. For its people, its spirit, its shared future.
I urge everyone to vote with courage and conviction. Let your vote firmly reject the harassment people faced in the name of long lines for petty politics.
The tide has turned in Haringhata!
After years of neglect and betrayal under BJP, the people have spoken. Today’s massive turnout for Shri @abhishekaitc's janasabha in support of Dr. Rajib Biswas made it clear that Haringhata will no longer tolerate deprivation.
A solemn pledge was taken today that not a single vote will go to Matua-Birodhi, Nadia-Birodhi, and Bangla-Birodhi BJP.
The people are ready to reclaim their future!
BJP promised unconditional citizenship to our Matua brothers and sisters, but they delivered nothing but betrayal.
After years of dangling the bait of citizenship to mislead the community, they forced legitimate citizens, people with every valid document, to stand in humiliating queues just to prove they belong.
Worse still, thousands were heartlessly erased from the electoral rolls. When confronted with this injustice, BJP leaders mocked the community, claiming it was ‘perfectly fine’ if a lakh Matua names were deleted, even saying, ‘let them die.’
This is the true, Matua-Birodhi face of the BJP.
A United Front for the People!
Bhabanipur witnessed a historic surge of energy today as Shri @yadavtejashwi joined Smt. @MamataOfficial, on the streets.
A powerful message of solidarity against the forces of division 💪
The heart of Bhabanipur beats for its daughter! ❤️
Unmatched energy and overwhelming love on the streets today as Smt. @MamataOfficial moved through her home turf.
In every smile and every blessing, the message remains the same. Bengal stands with its own.
During the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, the Election Commission deployed 3.4 lakh Central Force personnel, roughly 3,400 companies, across 543 constituencies nationwide. Yet in Bengal alone, for this election, they have unleashed 2,400 companies, 2.4 lakh Central Force personnel, along with 95 Police Observers.
And for what? They are conducting midnight raids, barging into the homes of ordinary citizens and Trinamool Congress workers in the dead of night, terrorising families, intimidating voters, outraging the modesty of women in the absence of their husbands, and not even sparing children.
A word of caution to every officer and observer involved: Think very carefully about what you are doing. Every single unconstitutional, illegal, and immoral act you commit will be met with the full force of the law. You will be dragged out of whichever state you come from, irrespective of the political patronage you enjoy, and made to pay for your crimes. No one will be spared.
Maheshtala stands firm with Shri @abhishekaitc!
A spectacular wave of public enthusiasm welcomes the Jononeta.
The energy here is truly unmatched!

৪ মে, খেলা হবে।
আগামী ২৯ এপ্রিল, জোড়াফুল চিহ্নে ভোট দিয়ে ভবানীপুর কেন্দ্রের আমাদের মা-মাটি-মানুষের প্রার্থী শ্রীমতী মমতা বন্দ্যোপাধ্যায়কে বিপুল ভোটে জয়যুক্ত করুন।
People of Bhabanipur, this is a call to the heart of our home!
Beyond the boundaries of caste, creed, or religion, we stand united by our love for Bengal. We appeal to every citizen: on April 29th, cast your vote for the Joraphool symbol. Press the 2nd button on the EVM and secure a historic victory for our Jononetri, our beloved Didi, Smt. @MamataOfficial.
Stand with the one who has stood by you through every storm. Let your love and blessings translate into every single vote!
The extraordinary enthusiasm, the genuine warmth, the spontaneous emotional outpouring of ordinary people at yesterday’s padyatra and janasabhas have moved me in ways that words can only approximate. This is a bond, forged over years of standing together through every challenge this land has faced. The victory of Maa-Mati-Manush is no longer a matter of prediction. It is a matter of time.
This sacred land of Bengal has, since time immemorial, stood as a beacon of harmony, culture, and civilisational pride. It has no place for divisive, destructive forces who seek to deprive Bengal of its rightful dues, tarnish its heritage, and ride their lust for power over the dignity of its people. They will receive the only response they deserve. A decisive, democratic reckoning from the vigilant and united people of Bengal.
The momentum of development has touched every corner of this state. No malicious force can halt it. Our people-centric welfare initiatives are the protective shield of Bengal's citizens, and no power on earth has the authority to snatch them away. I remain firmly confident that the people will continue to stand for Bengal's development, peace, and progress as they always have.
To protect our language, our culture, and the proud legacy of this land, I humbly appeal to every citizen, irrespective of caste, creed, religion, or background, to press the Joraphool symbol on 29th April and ensure a resounding victory for all Maa-Mati-Manush candidates.
Deeply saddened by the demise of legendary photographer Raghu Rai.
Through his lens, he captured the very soul of India for over half a century. His deeply moving frames leave behind an unmatched legacy. He had deep connections with, and a book on, Kolkata.
My heartfelt condolences to his family, friends, and followers.
