The BJP has intensified the Bengal election battle by unveiling its Sankalp Patra in Kolkata, placing the Uniform Civil Code at the heart of its pitch for “Sonar Bangla.” Amit Shah framed UCC as a promise of equality before law while accusing the Mamata Banerjee government of appeasement and selective governance. The manifesto also promises ₹3,000 monthly aid for women, 7th Pay Commission rollout, deportation of illegal infiltrators, implementation of central schemes, stronger law and order, and industrial revival. With ideology and governance now colliding head-on, the Bengal election is shaping into a high-stakes battle over identity and reform.
