West Bengal Governor Outlines BJP Government's Priorities on Security, Corruption, and DevelopmentPreviousNext

West Bengal Governor R.N. Ravi, in his inaugural address to the new Assembly session, outlined the BJP government's priorities including cracking down on anti-social elements, illegal infiltration, and corruption syndicates allegedly protected by the previous regime. The government aims to strengthen border security by transferring land to the BSF, curb illegal mining and extortion, and ensure zero tolerance towards crimes against women and marginalized groups. Economic revival through industrial development and welfare initiatives was also emphasized, alongside efforts to resolve the Gorkhaland issue politically.
