Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Friday officially launched the Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) 'Sankalp Patra' for the 2026 West Bengal Assembly elections, positioning it as a definitive roadmap to transition the state from "despair to development," aligned with Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision of Viksit Bharat and focuses on development, employment, women's empowerment, and national security.

Addressing a press conference, Shah launched a scathing critique of the Trinamool Congress (TMC), alleging that 15 years of their governance has resulted in a complete breakdown of law and order. "People gave Mamata Didi a mandate with great hope, but today they are seeking change from the heart," Shah stated, asserting that the BJP's vision is strictly aligned with Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Viksit Bharat mission, reported ANI.
