'Big khela' coming to Bengal, declares PM Modi

PM Narendra Modi addressed rallies across Bengal, dismissing Trinamool Congress' slogan and framing assembly polls as a battle to protect Bengal's identity. He promised to implement Uniform Civil Code to end "politics of appeasement" and accused TMC of relying on "infiltrators" to build a vote bank. Modi also linked corruption to an exodus of companies and loss of jobs, and pledged to speed up citizenship processes for Matua and Namashudra communities.
