The remarks come as the Bharatiya Janata Party continues to intensify its campaign in West Bengal ahead of the upcoming Assembly elections, with multiple high-energy rallies being addressed by senior party leaders.

While addressing a massive rally here, the PM announced that a BJP-led government would release a "white paper" to provide a comprehensive accounting of alleged corruption under the 15-year TMC regime.

PM Modi took direct aim at TMC's leadership, alleging systemic loot involving ministers and local MLAs.

"BJP will bring a white paper to ensure a legal accounting of corruption involving TMC's MLAs, ministers, and syndicates. It will present a full account of the government's 15 years. Under a BJP government, strict action will be taken to stop every such crime," said PM Modi.

In an effort to consolidate the crucial women's votea demographic that has traditionally supported Mamata Banerjeethe Prime Minister made a major financial pledge.

"Seeing Bengal's growing support for BJP, TMC is in panic and is misleading people with lies. You can be certain that BJP will shut down their shop of corruption. I have especially come to assure all the sisters and daughters of Bengal that BJP has announced โ‚น3,000 per month for women," PM Modi said.

The Prime Minister's visit comes as West Bengal prepares for crucial polling on April 23 and 29, with the results set for May 4. The upcoming elections follow the 2021 battle, where the TMC secured a landslide 213 seats. However, the BJP's growth from a minor player to 77 seats in the last cycle has set the stage for the current high-stakes confrontation.
