NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday engaged in a candid conversation with Rajmata Amrita Roy, the Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) distinguished nominee from Krishnanagar, West Bengal. In his poignant words, PM Modi articulated, “We are duty-bound to right the wrongs inflicted upon the innocent. The money usurped from the destitute must be reclaimed and reinvested in their welfare, as justice demands.”
Prime Minister Narendra Modi reiterated his commitment to combat corruption and uphold justice. PM Modi disclosed that he is actively exploring legal avenues to ensure that funds unlawfully obtained from the poor in West Bengal are returned to them through the assets and finances seized by the Enforcement Directorate (ED). He underscored the BJP’s unwavering resolve to eradicate corruption from the country, emphasizing the need for concerted efforts to thwart the collusion of corrupt entities seeking to shield one another.

Furthermore, PM Modi expressed optimism regarding the forthcoming state elections in West Bengal, asserting his confidence in the electorate’s endorsement of transformative change, or “Parivartan,” in the state’s political landscape. Rajmata Amrita Roy, the BJP’s candidate from Krishnanagar, hails from a lineage deeply rooted in Bengal’s rich historical tapestry. As the descendant of Raja Krishnachandra Roy, renowned for his steadfast defence of Sanatan Dharma against colonial and external threats, Roy embodies the legacy of resilience and valour. Her candidacy symbolizes the BJP’s strategic endeavour to leverage Bengal’s royal heritage in contrast to the political ethos represented by her opponent, TMC’s Mahua Moitra, who faced expulsion from Parliament due to allegations of impropriety.
The BJP’s decision to pit ‘rajmata’ (Queen Mother) Amrita Roy against Trinamool Congress’s Mahua Moitra in Bengal’s Krishnanagar constituency is seen as a trump card ahead of the Lok Sabha elections. Mahua Moitra won the Krishnanagar constituency in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, securing 6,14,872 votes while 5,51,654 votes were cast in favour of Kalyan Chaubey of the BJP, making the former win by a massive margin of 63,218.
