LS polls: 'The Indian Spiderman' Gaurav Sharma to contest from Mumbai South

West Bengal’s ruling Trinamool Congress has struck back at the BJP, rejecting allegations of dynastic politics and highlighting its record on governance, development, and fiscal self-reliance.Leader Kunal Ghosh accused the BJP of misrepresenting Bengal’s issues, saying, “You are taking taxes from Bengal and not giving Bengal its rightful money.” He further criticized BJP leaders for attempting to lecture the state on governance, calling their campaign a distraction from Bengal’s achievements under Mamata Banerjee.The offensive comes as BJP leaders Amit Shah and Rajnath Singh have repeatedly attacked TMC, accusing the party of promoting family interests over public welfare and urging the youth to reject dynastic politics. TMC’s response, however, positions the party as the defender of state rights, fiscal fairness, and the people’s mandate, framing the BJP’s narrative as politically motivated interference.As the West Bengal elections approach, the debate is shaping up not just around dynastic politics versus change, but over who can genuinely safeguard the state’s development, autonomy, and welfare, with TMC taking the fight directly to BJP and asserting its leadership in Bengal.
