Posted on 29th May 2024 by rohit kumar

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has broken all records by holding 22 rallies in West Bengal. No Prime Minister has held so many rallies in West Bengal before this.

 

While the BJP is elated by PM Modi's rallies, the opposition is sweating. There are 42 Lok Sabha seats in Bengal and the PM tried to touch every corner of Bengal with these rallies. The surprising thing is that this time no big leader of Congress came here to hold a rally. During the Bharat Nyay Yatra, Rahul Gandhi had touched Bengal. Then no one looked back towards Bengal. This led to disappointment among the local Congressmen.

 

At the same time, PM Modi held a series of rallies in Bengal since the announcement of elections on March 16. With two election rallies on Tuesday, this number has reached 18. The PM held a 2.5 km long road show in North Kolkata. It remains to be seen how much the BJP benefits from the PM's rallies. However, political analysts believe that the PM held so many rallies as part of a strategy and the BJP has got a psychological advantage from it and will continue to do so.

 

Four rallies even before the announcement of the elections

The BJP has been focusing on Bengal since the 2021 assembly elections. Then the BJP had put in all its strength. Taking the same formula forward, PM Modi held four big rallies in Arambagh, Krishnanagar South, Siliguri, and Barasat even before the announcement of the Lok Sabha elections.

 

Two rallies will be held today

Voting is to be held on nine seats in Bengal on June 1 in the seventh and final phase. According to BJP sources, PM Modi can address two rallies in Bengal on Wednesday.

 

CAA, infiltration, unemployment corruption and Sandeshkhali are major issues

PM Modi targeted the ruling Trinamool government over the corruption prevailing in Bengal and infiltration from Bangladesh. Raised the issue of recovery of crores of rupees from the houses of their ministers. Tried to clear the confusion on CAA. Raised the issue of unemployment due to the closure of industries. The oppression of women in Sandeshkhali was made the main issue. By giving a ticket to Rekha Patra, who is a leader in getting justice for women from Sandeshkhali, an attempt was made to show that the BJP is with women.
