As Union Home Minister Amit Shah is set to address a major BJP public meeting in Dharmatalla, Kolkata today, the political landscape is heating up with rivalries manifesting in poster warfare. The BJP has adorned the city with large banners and posters welcoming Shah, while the Trinamool Congress, the ruling party, has retaliated with a banner mocking Shah's political influence.
The Trinamool Congress's IT cell and social media cell strategically placed a poster along the route from the airport to Dharmatalla, where Shah's convoy is set to pass. The poster, bearing the phrase "Mota Bhai, Vote Nai," is interpreted as a playful jibe aimed at diminishing Amit Shah's electoral impact. The term "Mota Bhai" translates to "elder brother" in Gujarati, adding a regional nuance to the political banter.
As the banners attract attention and set the stage for a charged political atmosphere, the BJP has remained silent, withholding any immediate reaction to the Trinamool Congress's move.
