Modi Accuses TMC of Infiltrator Protection
Prime Minister Narendra Modi recently spoke at a rally in Singur, West Bengal.
He accused the ruling TMC government of protecting infiltrators for political gain and failing to cooperate with the central government on important security measures like border fencing.
Modi promised that a BJP government would secure the borders and improve law and order, which he claims is necessary for industrial development.
The CPI(M), however, accused the BJP of making hollow promises and colluding with the TMC in the past to drive out a major car factory from Singur.
The TMC has dismissed these accusations as politically motivated.
The debate highlights the ongoing political tensions in West Bengal ahead of the upcoming assembly elections.
