BJP’s Nadda To Give ‘Ek Muthi Chawal’ To Bengal

Kolkata: The Bhartiya Janata Party President, JP Nadda will organise a rally in West Bengal’s Bardhaman on Saturday during which he will launch ‘Ek Muthi Chawal‘ program. This is Nadda’s first visit to West Bengal post the attack on his convoy in Kolkata’s Diamond Harbor.
Nadda, in a bid to blunt opposition camp’s “anti- farmer” allegations against the BJP-led central government, will float ‘Ek Muthi Chawal’ (a fistful of rice), a project under which he would collect rice from farmers’ homes and brief them about the benefits of the new legislations.
Thousands of farmers, mainly from Punjab, Haryana and western Uttar Pradesh, are protesting at Delhi borders for over a month against the three laws. They have stayed put despite heavy rains and waterlogging at protest sites over the last couple of days, besides severe cold weather conditions prevailing in and around the national capital.
The Elections are to be held in West Bengal this year. Political parties are not leaving any stone unturned to woo the voters in West Bengal.
