Union Home Minister Amit Shah expressed strong confidence that the Bharatiya Janata Party would secure victory in the upcoming West Bengal Assembly elections, vowing to remove “every single infiltrator” from the state.
Speaking at a public rally, Shah said the party is fully prepared to address both electoral challenges and security concerns, highlighting efforts to identify and deport illegal migrants. He emphasized that safeguarding borders and maintaining law and order are key priorities for the BJP-led central government.
The Home Minister also accused rival political parties of failing to protect the state from infiltration, framing the issue as central to the party’s campaign strategy. He reiterated that the BJP is committed to ensuring demographic integrity and protecting the interests of local citizens.
Shah’s remarks come amid a heated electoral season in West Bengal, where political tensions have escalated over migration, security, and governance issues. Analysts note that promises on immigration enforcement are likely to resonate with certain voter groups, while critics warn of potential communal polarisation.
The BJP leadership emphasized that election preparations include a combination of grassroots mobilization, public outreach, and enforcement of existing laws. Party officials said the campaign will focus on development, governance, and national security, presenting the BJP as a decisive alternative to the current state administration.
Shah concluded by urging voters to support the party in order to bring “progress, peace, and safety” to West Bengal, asserting that a BJP government would implement policies to ensure long-term stability and security for all residents.
The statement is expected to dominate political discourse in the state as parties ramp up campaigning ahead of the polls, with security and migration issues becoming a key battleground in the election narrative.
