West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has become fully active to conquer the election battle for the fourth consecutive time. Mamta is standing openly with Muslims regarding the Waqf law. After the announcement of not implementing the Waqf law in Bengal, Mamta met with the Imams, Moazzins and people of Muslim society on Wednesday. During this, Mamta targeted the Modi government and BJP fiercely over the Waqf law.
If the BJP blamed for the violence in Bengal, he also requested Muslims to maintain peace. CM Mamta Banerjee is playing on the frontfoot to protest against the Waqf law. He assured the Muslims and has clearly stated that the Waqf law will not be allowed to be implemented in any case in West Bengal. She told the Muslims that she will stand against the policy of the Center, but there should be no violent opposition.
Mamta Banerjee clearly said, “As long as I am in the government, someone will not let any Hindu-Muslim be.
Mamta Banerjee standing in favor of Muslims
Assembly elections are due in West Bengal next year and Mamata Banerjee wants to maintain her strong hold on the Muslim vote bank of the state. In such a situation, Mamta has announced to stand openly with the Muslims protesting against the Waqf law. Mamta Banerjee on Wednesday told the Imams and Moazinas of Bengal that the Modi government has amended the Waqf law and played with the constitution, but trust, we should not let it be implemented in Bengal under any circumstances. Mamta said that those who are destroying the constitution are not the constitution of the BJP but the constitution of the country. Nitish Kumar and Chandrababu Naidu are sitting silent to remain in power. Had the Waqf bill opposed, the constitution could not have been amended.
Mamta Banerjee has appealed to the Muslim community to trust the state government and do not spread any violence. Mamta seems to be a conspiracy behind the violence in Bengal and she blamed the BJP for her. During the meeting with Muslim clerics, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee said that I will appeal to the India alliance to stay united, we should fight boldly together. This is not our personal matter, but it will be inferior to everyone. Want to bring UCC after Waqf law. In such a situation, the India alliance should protest together. In this way, Mamata Banerjee assured the Muslims and said that we want to gather everyone to fight your fight.
How Mamta Banerjee is playing double game
The Muslim community is angry with the Modi government regarding the Waqf law. Muslims feel that the Modi government is interfering in its religious matters and wants to take away their property. In such a situation, Mamta Banerjee is playing double game standing in protest against the Waqf law. On the one hand, Mamta is targeting the BJP, while the second Waqf Act has put the Congress and the left in the fight by talking about coming with the India alliance in the fight against the Waqf Act.
While the Left is besieging Mamata Banerjee on the issue of Murshidabad violence, Congress leader Adhir Ranjan Chaudhary is also raising questions, but the way the Chief Minister is standing with Muslims, she wants to completely remove the Congress and the Left from Muslims in the assembly elections to be held in 2026. Mamta knows to what extent the Muslim community is angry about the Waqf law. In such a situation, their faith can be won by standing with them.
Understand Muslim politics in Bengal
West Bengal has 30 percent Muslim voters, who have their impact on about 100 to 120 assembly seats. The number of Muslim voters in Murshidabad, Malda, North Dinajpur, Dakshin Dinajpur and South 24 Parganas districts of Bengal is more than 40 percent on these seats. Murshidabad has about 70 percent Muslim voters and 57 percent in Malda. Both these districts have 34 assembly seats. In this way, Mamta Banerjee has done a strategy to maintain her grip on Muslim votes.
West Bengal is perhaps a state where Muslim vote is like a premium. Mamta Banerjee is ready to pay any price to get a Muslim vote bank. Before 2010, Muslim voters in Bengal were associated with Congress and Left, but since 2011, Mamata Banerjee’s core vote bank is being considered. However, along with the Left and Congress, TMC is now trying to bring the Muslim community into its court, because it is not easy for any party to ignore Muslims in West Bengal to win the election battle.
Muslim love may not become expensive
The way Mamta Banerjee is eyeing the Muslim vote bank, it can definitely worry about the politics of Congress and Left, but it is not easy to overcome the BJP. On the pretext of Murshidabad violence, the BJP is taking a dig at TMC and is engaged in setting the agenda of Hindutva by alleging Muslim appeasement. This winning formula of BJP has been. The BJP has managed to win the election battle of Uttar Pradesh and Delhi by accusing opposition parties of Muslim conflict.
The BJP has accused the SP and RJD of being Muslims in such a way that till date it has not been able to get out of it. From the Congress to the SP, RJD, many opposition parties have been won by the BJP by putting them in anti -Hindu doors. As part of this strategy, the bet is going on to exclude TMC from BJP West Bengal. In such a situation, Mamta Banerjee’s Muslim love should not be far away from Muslim love?
