New Delhi / Kolkata:
To demolish Mamata Banerjee’s fort in West Bengal, the Bharatiya Janata Party has focused on ten thousand small and big social and religious institutions, which have a great influence among Hindu voters. BJP has started public relations campaign by forming several groups with the officials of these social organizations. Party sources say that the visit of Home Minister Amit Shah and BJP National President JP Nadda along with intellectuals and other sections of society along with visiting the birthplace of great men during West Bengal tour is part of the strategy to connect every section with the party. Hindus in West Bengal also have different sects and classes, who according to organizations like Ramakrishna Mission, Bharat Sevashram Sangh, Hindu Milan Samaj, ISKCON, etc. decide their stand.
Emphasis on Vivekananda and Ramakrishna Mission
Significantly, Home Minister Amit Shah went to the Ramakrishna Mission on Saturday and started a two-day tour of West Bengal. He went to the Ramakrishna Mission and offered flowers to the statue of Swami Vivekananda. Swami Vivekananda is very much accepted in Bengal. The public considers him his ideal. A BJP leader said, there are about 50 lakh followers of Ramakrishna Mission in West Bengal. Swami Vivekananda increased the value of India in the world, but the current Trinamool Congress government did not take any initiative towards furthering the teachings of Swami Vivekananda nor the work of Ramakrishna Mission. Now the BJP will carry forward the legacy of all the great men of West Bengal.

Kava to pay obeisance at Dakshineswar Kali templeIf
The BJP’s think tank is working on a strategy in line with the Trinamool Congress in West Bengal. Initially, when the BJP started raising slogans of Jai Shri Ram in the programs, Mamata Banerjee had said that it should impose cultural nationalism of North India on the people of Bengal. On which the BJP think tank immediately changed its line and started emphasizing on the cultural nationalism of Bengal. Seeing the huge number of followers of Maa Kali in West Bengal, all senior BJP leaders visit Dakshineswar Kali temple during every visit. In this way, BJP has now focused on Mother Kali instead of Shri Ram. It is a different matter that in every meeting or meeting of BJP leaders, the slogan of Jai Shri Ram is maintained.
