ALIPURDUAR: Launching a blistering attack on the TMC government in West Bengal, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday said the state is “plagued” by violence, corruption and lawlessness, and asserted that people are now yearning for change from the “Nirmam sarkar” (cruel government).Addressing a rally in Alipurduar, Modi said incidents of communal violence in Murshidabad and Malda are grim reminders of the TMC regime’s “cruelty and indifference” to the sufferings of ordinary citizens.”Today, West Bengal is grappling with a series of crises. People don’t want ‘Nirmam Sarkar’. They want change and good governance. That is why the whole of Bengal is saying they don’t want cruelty and corruption anymore,” Modi said.”First is the widespread violence and lawlessness that are tearing apart the fabric of society. Second is the growing sense of insecurity among mothers and sisters, compounded by horrific crimes committed against them,” the PM said.Modi said the third crisis in Bengal is the deepening despair among the youth, driven by rising unemployment and lack of opportunities, while the fourth is the “pervasive corruption” that is eroding public trust in the system.
