Shah likely to visit city this month, set roadmap for polls
With the 2026 West Bengal Assembly elections in sight, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has begun its preparations to strengthen its foothold in the state.
Former BJP national president and Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Monday promised to make a “corruption free Bengal.”
Shah, who inaugurated the Ram temple-themed Durga Pandal at Santosh Mitra Square in north Kolkata, said that the change will come in Bengal and all efforts will be made to bring change here.

Shah said: “I have come to Bengal today only to seek the blessings of Mother Durga. These nine days are a significant celebration for West Bengal, even bigger than Diwali.”
“Today, Amit Shah does not wish to make any political comments during the inauguration of Durga Puja. I will come to West Bengal, and I will talk about politics too,” he said.
