- Rahul Gandhi promised to bring a people-friendly government in West Bengal.
West Bengal Assembly Elections 2026: Leader of opposition in Lok Sabha and Congress MP Rahul Gandhi on Saturday (April 25, 2026) targeted Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and Prime Minister Narendra Modi in West Bengal. He said that in their greed for power, BJP and TMC have caused a lot of harm to the people of West Bengal. The web of corruption and hooliganism is spread across the state, the people are upset and the government is just watching the show. Mamata Banerjee is paving the way for Modi and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in West Bengal.
He said that BJP and TMC together have left no stone unturned to destroy West Bengal. When I talked to a candidate from here, he told that readymade industry works here, but both Mamata Banerjee and Narendra Modi did not help the people associated with this industry, hence you should raise our issue in the Parliament. In such a situation, I want to ask you to make a white T-shirt for me. I will raise your voice in the Lok Sabha wearing the same T-shirt.
