New Delhi, Apr 14:
Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Monday expressed strong confidence in the Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) electoral prospects in West Bengal, asserting that the party is witnessing a “very positive atmosphere” across the state and is poised to form the next government.
Shah said the public mood clearly indicates growing support for the BJP.
“It is a very positive atmosphere for the Bharatiya Janata Party, and it is certain that a BJP government is going to be formed here,” he added.
His remarks come amid an intensifying political battle between the BJP and the ruling Trinamool Congress led by Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, who has been mounting sharp criticism of the BJP’s key ideological and policy positions, particularly the proposed Uniform Civil Code (UCC).
