New Delhi | April 5, 2026 Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched a blistering attack on the Trinamool Congress (TMC) following the recent unrest in Malda, accusing the ruling party of allowing a “sponsored jungle raj” to take root in West Bengal. Speaking at a public event, Modi alleged that the situation in Malda reflects a deeper breakdown of governance, claiming that violence and disorder are being “encouraged for political gain.” He said the incident was not random but part of a larger pattern of lawlessness under the state administration.
⚡ Sharp Criticism of State Leadership
The Prime Minister also took aim at Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, suggesting that her government has failed to maintain law and order. He accused the state leadership of being lenient towards offenders while ignoring the concerns of ordinary citizens. “People deserve safety and justice, not fear and instability,” Modi remarked, stressing that governance should prioritize public security over politics.
🚨 Political Fallout Intensifies
The Malda episode has quickly escalated into a major political flashpoint, with the BJP citing it as evidence of administrative failure in West Bengal. Meanwhile, TMC leaders have rejected the allegations, calling them exaggerated and politically driven. As tensions rise, the incident is expected to further fuel the ongoing political battle between the Centre and the Bengal government.
