Union Home Minister Amit Shah will visit Kolkata today to kick off the BJP’s campaign for the municipal elections in April across West Bengal with an eye on the big ticket for local polls. Shah will address a rally where he will launch the BJP’s campaign song attacking Trinamool Congress. The title of the song is “Aar Noy Onnyaye” or “No More Injustice”.
All eyes are on what Mr Shah might say at the rally about the Delhi violence triggered this week over the controversial Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA).
Neither he nor the Prime Minister Narendra Modi have talked about it in their public programmes so far respectively at Bhubaneswar and Prayagraj over the last two days.
Just as they had done when the Prime Minister visited Kolkata in January at the height of anti-CAA agitation, Left and Congress students will hold protests against Amit Shah across the city.
The opposition parties in the state, the CPM and Congress have criticized Mamata Banerjee for allowing the BJP rally at a time when political activities are restricted because of ongoing board exams.
They also attacked the chief minister for failing to condemn the Delhi clashes when she met Amit Shah for an Eastern Zonal Council meeting in Bhubaneswar on Friday.
