Advani predicts end of Marxist rule in Bengal

The participation of BJP's top brass at the rally is also seen as an attempt to rejuvenate the West Bengal unit of the party which is relatively weak in strength in comparison to two major Opposition parties-- Trinamool Congress and Congress. He said it was regrettable that though China's ruling communist party wanted to strengthen party-to-party ties with the BJP, the CPI(M) in India thought it was "untouchable".
"If there is necessity to change the government at the Centre for its involvement in many corruption scandals and failure to check prise rise, the Left Front government in West Bengal too has to go for destroying Bengal," the veteran leader said. "Kolkata once was the industrial capital of India. But see what has Bengal come to now! Industries are being closed down one after another.
"If there is the rise of Naxalism in West Bengal, no other party but the CPI(M) and the CPI are responsible," former BJP president Rajnath Singh said. He alleged that in 2001 Assembly election in West Bengal, the Left had taken the help of PWG and MCC. Pointing out that infiltration was a national problem, Singh also accused the Left Front government of doing nothing to stop the large-scale illegal infiltration from Bangladesh. "It is regrettable that infiltrators were being given ration cards in West Bengal with an eye on the election," he said.
