Prime Minister Narendra Modi held a massive roadshow in North Kolkata ahead of the second phase of the West Bengal Assembly elections, drawing large crowds and strong visible support. Earlier, he visited the historic Tantania Kalibari, a 300-year-old temple. The visit is seen as part of the BJP's cultural outreach to Bengali voters, especially in key urban constituencies. With over 92% voter turnout in Phase 1, the political battle between the BJP and Mamata Banerjee's Trinamool Congress has intensified. Meanwhile, Mamata Banerjee is set to campaign alongside Arvind Kejriwal, indicating a broader opposition push.
