Mamata launches TMC manifesto with 10 Protigya pledges amid BJP attacks
Mamata Banerjee unveils the TMC's '10 Protigya' pledges, promising welfare, jobs and housing as West Bengal heads to elections.
Mamata Banerjee unveiled the TMC's election manifesto, introducing the '10 Protigya' pledges that she says will lift welfare, create jobs, deliver homes, and build up infrastructure across Bengal. She accused the BJP of a deep conspiracy to capture the state and weaken its institutions, framing the coming polls as a defensive fight for Bengal's democracy. The veteran leader urged voters to back a manifesto she claims will deliver on social security and growth.
Key commitments include Pucca housing for families and enhanced financial aid to women, along with stronger support for youth and farmers. Banerjee also touted plans for industrial infrastructure to attract investment, while pledging upgraded schools, better healthcare, and reliable 24/7 power supply to households and businesses. The 10 Protigya are aimed at broad-based development, she said, with a focus on welfare and inclusive progress.
The campaign trail has intensified with elections scheduled for April 23 and 29. As parties roll out promises, voters will weigh the TMC's plans against the BJP's criticisms and questions about governance. The manifesto's reception could shape the early phase of Bengal's electoral race.
