'Mamata Didi misleading people of Bengal': Amit Shah takes jibe at West Bengal CM on CAA

(More to come) This marks Amit Shah's first visit to the state after the dates of the election were announced. Citing the example of Assam where the National Register of Citizens exercise was conducted to determine illegal migrants into the state, the Union Home Minister said that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government in the neighbouring state got rid on infiltration. "Assam faced a similar problem of infiltration.

The people of Assam voted the BJP to power and no one can come into Assam from its borders. We have got rid of the problem of infiltration," Shah said. Asking people to vote for the BJP so that the party wins 30 out of 42 seats in West Bengal, Shah promised, "I have come to tell you that if you make us cross 30 seats and form a BJP government in Bengal, not even a bird will land here crossing the borders and no infiltrator will come in." Speaking about the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA), the Rules of which were notified by the central government recently, Shah said that Mamata Banerjee is misleading people on the controversial law.

"I have come to appeal to the people of Bengal with folded hands. We have passed a law called CAA. Mamata Didi is misleading the people of Bengal by saying that if you apply, your citizenship will be lost," the Union Minister said.
