Battleground Bengal Heats Up: Shah's 'Chargesheet' Vs TMC's Counter-Strike

Launching a broadside against the Mamata Banerjee-led government in West Bengal, Union Home Minister Amit Shah has released a "chargesheet" against it and said next month's Assembly elections in the state are about choosing between fear and trust.

Addressing a press conference on Saturday, the BJP leader said the Trinamool Congress chief relies on "lies, intimidation and violence" to further her political agenda. He emphasised that Bengal, being a border state, is crucial for the country's security, which is being threatened by "infiltrators".
