On Saturday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited Assam, and in Sivasagar, distributed land allotment certificates to the indigenous folks of the state who for many years have been disadvantaged of land possession rights. The Prime Minister handed out land ‘pattas’ to over 1.06 lakh indigenous landless households. The transfer comes because the state of Assam gears up for the meeting polls in April-May this yr, by which the BJP fights it out in opposition to a Congress-AIUDF alliance. On Saturday too, the Prime Minister invoked his “double-engine government” rhetoric, saying that BJP governments each on the Centre and in Assam had made the super improvement of Assam doable. PM Modi remarked how when the BJP authorities took over in 2016, there have been shut to six lakh landless folks in Assam, out of which 2.25 lakh landless folks have obtained land pattas already. With Saturday’s mega operate granting land pattas to a different 1.06 lakh households – the BJP authorities of the state has lined over 50 per cent of the unique landless households, by granting them land rights. Work is now on to grant the remaining households with land pattas as quickly as doable. While the BJP authorities of Assam is granting land rights and allotment certificates to indigenous tribal households who had been disadvantaged of the identical for many years, lower than two years in the past in West Bengal, Mamata Banerjee launched a minimum of an total marketing campaign to provide land-holding rights to unlawful Muslim refugees from Bangladesh. The transfer was aimed toward consolidating the TMC’s maintain over the unlawful refugee voter financial institution, who’ve for inexplicable causes received maintain of voting rights in India. In November 2019, Mamata Banerjee had introduced that her authorities will work to regularise all refugee settlements on (state, Central and even privately-owned) land measuring as much as three acres — a contentious matter in Bengal. She mentioned refugees dwelling in these colonies will now have rights over their land which till now was categorised as “adverse possession”. Effectively, this meant that Mamata Banerjee was not solely working to provide unlawful infiltrators land from the state’s share however was additionally illegally attempting to show usurped Central and personal lands into the property of refugees squatting over them. Obviously, if Banerjee can be the messiah, giving land rights to unlawful infiltrators, it doesn’t require a supernatural genius to grasp the place the votes of such benefactors can be going.While the BJP is working tirelessly to make sure that the indigenous folks of Assam can avail their rightful land within the state, the TMC authorities of Bengal has traditionally all the time labored to woo unlawful Bangladeshi infiltrators, solely to attain political brownie factors. At a time, when BJP in Assam is solely working for the advantage of those that have all the time deserved land possession rights within the state however have remained disadvantaged of the identical; it’s prudent to recall TMC’s shameless pandering to unlawful Bangladeshi infiltrators. This, in the meantime, is inflicting an enormous Hindu vote consolidation in West Bengal within the favour of BJP.
