Amit Shah charts roadmap, asserts BJP’s victory in 2026 assembly elections

Kolkata, June 1 (UNI) Outlining a comprehensive roadmap for the BJP's expanding footprint in West Bengal, Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Sunday asserted that in a free and fair, violence-free election, the people of the state would decisively reject Mamata Banerjee’s leadership and ensure the formation of a BJP-led government in 2026.
Addressing party leaders and workers at the Netaji Indoor Stadium here, Shah said, “Just a little more to go! You’ve already crossed 40 percent (of the vote). We need to move ahead by another four to five percent. In the next election, we will form the government.”
Analysing the growing influence of the saffron brigade in the state, Shah said, “In 2017, when I was the BJP president, I had said that a BJP government would be formed here. That day is now approaching. After the 2017 elections, we began our preparations. In the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, we achieved success. In the 2021 Assembly elections, we won 77 seats. In the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, the BJP was leading in 97 Assembly segments."
