El BJP lanza la tarjeta simbólica Matri Shakti Bharosha en Calcuta

Con motivo de Poila Baisakh, el BJP lanzó la tarjeta simbólica Matri Shakti Bharosha en Calcuta, prometiendo una ayuda financiera mensual de 3.000 rupias a cada mujer en Bengala Occidental si llegan al poder. Cinco mujeres del BJP recibieron las tarjetas. El TMC alegó que esto viola el código de conducta electoral.

En Calcuta, el BJP distribuyó las tarjetas simbólicas Matri Shakti Bharosha durante Poila Baisakh, el Año Nuevo bengalí. Las tarjetas representan una promesa del manifiesto de otorgar 3.000 rupias mensuales de ayuda a cada mujer en Bengala Occidental, como contrapropuesta al plan Lakshmir Bhandar del TMC. El evento contó con la presencia de los líderes del BJP Smriti Irani, Suvendu Adhikari y la candidata Rupa Ganguly. Adhikari declaró: "Debemos salvar la cultura y el idioma bengalí... Nuestro manifiesto es 'fuera el miedo, dentro la confianza'". Irani criticó al gobierno del TMC respecto a la seguridad de las mujeres, recordando las dificultades para implementar centros de atención integral en Bengala durante su gestión como Ministra de Desarrollo de la Mujer y el Niño. Mencionó que existen más de 900 centros de este tipo en todo el país y aludió al caso de violación y asesinato de RG Kar. El TMC acusó al lanzamiento de ser una "violación flagrante" del Código de Conducta Modelo. La ministra estatal Shashi Panja dijo a los periodistas: "Esto es una violación del MCC... Protestamos contra esto". Panja señaló promesas similares del BJP en Delhi que no se cumplieron y afirmó que el partido se encuentra en estado de pánico ante las elecciones a la Asamblea de Bengala Occidental.
