West Bengal Elections 2026 | 'Clear Majority Coming': Rajnath Singh's Big Bengal Claim

Union Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, speaking exclusively to NDTV during a roadshow in Barrackpore, launched a sharp attack on Mamata Banerjee and the Trinamool Congress. Expressing strong confidence ahead of the elections, Rajnath Singh said the massive crowds reflect a clear mood for change and predicted that the BJP will form the next government in West Bengal with a clear majority. He also dismissed allegations regarding paramilitary deployment and the Election Commission, calling such claims “unfortunate” and defending the neutrality of institutions. The remarks come amid an intense political battle in Bengal, with both BJP and TMC trading sharp accusations as the state heads into crucial elections.
