Amit Shah to visit West Bengal
Senior Bharatiya Janata Party leader and Union Home Minister Amit Shah is likely to visit West Bengal later this month. It will be Shahâs second visit to the poll-bound state within a month.Â
Though dates are yet to be announced, reports say that the former BJP chief will visit the state on December 19 and 20.Â
Shah is likely to oversee the partyâs preparedness for the Assembly election due for April-May 2021.
The development comes a day after BJP president JP Nadda's convoy was attacked in South 24 Parganas district. Nadda's convoy was attacked with stones and bricks while on its way to Diamond Harbour. Cars of several party leaders including that of BJP national general secretary Kailash Vijayvargiya and West Bengal BJP chief Dilip Ghosh which were part of the convoy were damaged in the alleged attack. Nadda, however, escaped unhurt. His party colleague Vijayavargiya suffered injuries in the attack.
