00:00 As the looks of our elections draw near, all eyes are now on Bengal where a fierce BJP-TMC
00:18 confrontation looms once again, which often escalates into violence.
00:22 In this special episode series, we engage with BJP's emerging leader Nishit Pramanik
00:27 on crucial issues.
00:28 Questions abound - will the BJP cross 400 seat mark?
00:31 And what will the Modi 3.0 look like if they secure a re-election?
00:36 It's a pivotal moment in Indian politics and the stakes couldn't be higher.
00:39 Welcome to One India, Mr. Nishit.
00:42 What is the difference between the 2019 and 2024 elections?
00:53 "In 2019, we were in a situation where we were at a much stronger organizational level than we were at a much weaker organizational level.
01:13 And when the elections were held in 2019, there were a lot of workers.
01:23 For the first time, we saw victory.
01:25 The people of Bengal raised their hands and spoke.
01:27 But after that, the post-coronavirus of 2021, the violence in the Panchayat elections, and
01:34 all this violence, the workers of the BJP stood firm.
01:39 Even after the TMC's brutal protests, the workers stood firm.
01:52 And all this, while burning in the fire, the workers of the BJP stood firm.
02:02 So, definitely, a lot of experience, whether it's the workers of the BJP, or the leaders of the Mandal Star,
02:14 everyone got to learn all this, and got to see it.
02:18 And how to deal with the situation, this was also an experience.
02:23 So, naturally, from 2019, we are much stronger than we were in 2024, the BJP.
02:34 And the West Bengal, the Trinamool Congress government, how it destroyed the human rights of the people,
02:53 how it did not allow the use of human rights in the Trinamool Congress,
03:00 the people of West Bengal saw this, whether it was the Municipality elections or the Gram Panchayat elections,
03:11 people could not go to vote.
03:14 So, the work of taking away human rights that the Trinamool Congress did, people are ready to answer for it.
03:24 On one hand, the public and the public wealth, which is like God for us, is ready.
03:30 And on the other hand, the BJP is becoming stronger and stronger at the organizational level.
03:35 So, both together can say that the election of 2024 is going to be great.
03:44 And on one hand, the public is ready, on the other hand, the workers of the BJP are ready to serve them.
03:51 So, all together, a great election will be seen in 2024.
03:56 Narendra Modi ji said that this time 400 crores, this is the slogan of the BJP.
04:01 So, in the last election, in North Bengal, the 8 seats were mixed together.
04:08 So, what are your issues in this upcoming election? Because everyone says that the state government in North Bengal does not work.
04:21 So, what issues would you like to put forward?
04:26 Look, the first thing is that North Bengal has been independent for a long time, and whether it is the government, whether it is the Left Front, Congress or the Trinamool Congress,
04:44 no government has worked for the development of West Bengal.
04:57 If anyone looks at the North Bengal and tries to work the most, then it is the Indian government.
05:07 If the West Bengal government had wanted to run through Trinamool, if it had been their co-operation, then this work could have been done with more diversity.
05:18 You all saw, you just saw from the road that how the central government has developed, how the infra development has been done.
05:29 Earlier, the railway track was single, one train used to come and stop to go to the other train. Now, it is double track.
05:38 No one could have imagined electrification. Now, the local train has also been electrified.
05:45 And along with that, the airport of Kuch Bihar, which was from the road, railway, Vande Bharat Express, was like this earlier, very fast, for a long time.
06:03 The state government started with 2-3 aircrafts 3-4 times, but could not run for more than a month.
06:11 And the central government, with the Modi Ji's Udaan scheme, is running regular scheduled flights from Kuch Bihar, without stopping.
06:21 This means that the central government, to complete all the infra development, connectivity development, to decorate the North Bengal, takes this issue very seriously.
06:40 So, in this regard, we have asked for the support of the state government many times, whether it is in the time of preparing the National Centre of Excellence,
06:49 or whether it is when we, in West Bengal, not only in North Bengal, when 6 land ports were declared,
06:59 at that time, when we asked for land from the state, there too, the state did not cooperate.
07:08 So, this means that if a central government takes a project and wants to do development work in Bengal, then Bengal government does not cooperate for it.
07:17 See, development is a different thing, it is above the party, it is your, any ideological work, but all this should be included in the development work.
07:28 There are many states like Tamil Nadu, like Parochi state, Odisha, I think that the West Bengal, the government run by the West Bengal, should learn from Odisha, from Tamil Nadu,
07:48 that how to work with the central government in the time of development work.
07:54 Mr. Narendra Modi and Mr. Amit Shah love you very much, they bless you a lot, we know this too.
08:02 So, I would like to know from you that as a politician, as a gentleman, what did you learn from them, what should everyone learn from them?
08:19 See, first of all, Mr. Modi and Mr. Amit Shah are such leaders who can say that they are the embodiment of the people of the time.
08:34 And they themselves are an institution, so you can learn as much as you want, it is unlimited, there is no limit here, it is infinity.
08:48 And there is a sea of knowledge, and we have learned one thing that love for the country, goodwill, transparency, and any small matter,
09:05 understanding it in its gravity, and what should be done for it, taking this decision immediately, we have seen that this is happening in a very serious time.
09:26 Taking a serious decision with absolute stability, this is the principle that both of them have.
09:37 And they always think for the benefit of the country, even if they don't think, they think for the benefit of the country,
09:42 they see the benefit of the country in everyone. So, we have got such a leader in our country, we are very fortunate that we have worked with such a leader.
09:52 Modi ji's biggest guarantee, which has been implemented by the CAA, and many citizens are happy with it, but here during the Trinamool A vote,
10:04 there are many things being said about the CAA, what should you say about this?
10:11 First of all, I would say that the Trinamool Congress should first look at the guidelines of the CAA, and the rules that have been made.
10:21 This is not a bill to take away someone's citizenship, this is a bill to give citizenship.
10:26 Those who have been religiously dispersed and are coming to India from Bangladesh, Afghanistan and Pakistan,
10:31 this is a bill to give them their rights, not to take away anyone's rights. And apart from that, the CAA is just a, what I would say,
10:41 Citizenship Amendment Act is such a bill, through which people who are religiously dispersed will get citizenship.
10:55 But apart from that, there is a lot of demand for citizenship. And the attempt to confuse this issue is being made by the Trinamool Congress in West Bengal.
11:06 I would say that people have understood this very well, and Mamata Banerjee's trick is not going to be a joke.
11:17 I would like to clarify one thing, when we removed the 370 from Kashmir, Abhishek,
11:30 even after that there was a lot of noise that there will be a fire in Kashmir, but there was not a single incident of Home Minister's leadership.
11:40 A lot of people said that if the Ram Mandir is built, there will be a lot of fire in Kashmir.
11:47 The Prime Minister also established the Ram Lalla Pram, and also the Baburao Mandir, but there was not a single incident in the country.
11:55 Even before the CAA, Mamata Banerjee, the Trinamool Congress said that there will be a lot of incidents.
12:03 But Mamata Banerjee did call people for the movement, she did inspire people, but no one took up the issue with Mamata Banerjee.
12:15 No movement was there.
12:17 So, we can say clearly that the people of Bengal, the people of the whole country have understood that the CAA, the Citizenship Amendment Act,
12:26 is for the benefit of the people, who have come to our country by being religiously propagated, to give them rights.
12:35 Mr. Nishit, you have a busy schedule, I will ask you a few questions.
12:39 You said that you have to learn from Odisha, you are also in the Ministry of Sports.
12:46 The sports infrastructure has also developed a lot in Odisha and many other states have also developed.
12:54 But they say that you are the sports minister here, but Trinamool also says that nothing has happened in the Sai Centre in Jodhpur, we have done it.
13:04 So, about this, the biggest issue in your sports is that you have started a job from Khelo India.
13:14 So, what will you tell us about this sport and what will you say about the TMC who is saying that they did not do anything in North Bengal?
13:23 What will you say about this?
13:25 Look, I will say that if there is a biggest criminal for this, then I will say that it is the government run by Trinamool.
13:32 Because when the Prime Minister announced the Khelo India Centre, we imagined it and practically implemented it.
13:43 We established 1000 Khelo India Centres across the country.
13:48 But when we asked the West Bengal government where to do it, because we give state permission.
13:57 If we want to do some infrastructure in any state, use their land, use their land, then they have to talk to us, have to take permission.
14:10 So, when we asked about this, the West Bengal government did not give any reply, did not talk about it at all.
14:19 So, if anyone is deprived of this facility, then it is the people of Bengal.
14:26 And who deprived? The government of Bengal deprived, the government run by West Bengal.
14:32 What will you say about the opposition?
14:38 You are being told that they did not do anything.
14:42 They are saying against the CAA that the Rajbansi's who you told, the relationship with them did not happen.
14:50 So, all these allegations are being made in their campaign, Mr. Jagdish is saying.
14:55 So, what will you say about the opposition?
15:00 I do not have time to tell about the opposition, I do not have time to think about them seriously.
15:07 It is up to them to think, it is up to them to speak.
15:11 If the opposition does not speak well about me, will they praise me in front of you?
15:17 It is their job to speak well.
15:21 And when they know about the Trinamool Congress that if they fight politically, if they vote for the people politically, then the Trinamool Congress will not win from here at any cost.
15:37 That is why they attack.
15:40 If you want to learn about the cruelty of politics, then learn from Trinamool.
15:51 How to attack people, how to torture people, how to defame women's honour, you have to learn from Trinamool.
15:55 If you want to learn, if you want to see, then go to the house of Trinamool Congress leader.
15:59 Go to their office and see how women are called to protest and torture at 12 o'clock in the night.
16:08 This is the culture of Trinamool Congress.
16:11 The less we say about it, the better.
16:14 That is why we do not want to say anything about them.
16:19 We do not want to say anything.
16:21 We believe in our work, in our efforts.
16:26 We believe in the people.
16:29 So it is better that we think about the people.
16:33 My last question is, what is your vision for the next five years and how are you accepting the margin this time?
16:43 I will say that the expectation is of the people's blessings.
16:50 The margin is made by the blessings of the people.
16:53 So if you say a number of expectations, then there is no such thing.
17:03 People will bless them with both their hands.
17:07 They will bless them in the morning, they will give them good wishes.
17:09 We just keep believing.
17:11 And more blessings will be received, this is a small leaf.
17:14 And if you say what is the vision for the next five years, then there will be an effort to support ourselves as much as possible for the country.
17:25 And I have seen the dream of the Prime Minister that India should be made a developed country.
17:31 Our country should be made from a developing nation to a developed nation.
17:35 So for that, I will do my best.
17:42 I wish you all the best.
17:44 You have given us so much time in this busy schedule.
17:48 I am very grateful for this. Thank you.
