‘People of Bengal will choose between two models of governance, two kinds of leadership’
The Hindu
Kailash Vijayvargiya, national general secretary of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), has been the party’s observer for West Bengal for the past six years. He is considered one of the architects of the BJP’s meteoric rise in West Bengal. From a party that got 10.18% votes in 2016 to 40.3% in 2019, the BJP under Mr. Vijayvargiya has emerged as the main Opposition force in the State, and claims to have a chance of coming to power in Bengal. Mr. Vijayvargiya spoke to The Hindu’s correspondent Shiv Sahay Singh on the BJP’s prospects and challenges in the forthcoming Assembly polls.
The BJP is all set to form the next government in West Bengal. People of West Bengal are going to choose between two governments — one at the Centre and the other in the State. The people are also aware that there are two different leadership models at the Centre and at the State. On one side there is the leadership of Narendra Modi, where in the past six years not a single Minister has been accused of any corruption. The schemes of the Centre are reaching beneficiaries with transparency. There are no middlemen in the implementation of these schemes and complete transparency is maintained. On the other hand, we see the way the State government schemes are riddled with corruption and everywhere there are syndicates operating. People in West Bengal have to give commission for availing benefits of every scheme.
