Suvendu Adhikari Targets Gujarat-Style Development for West Bengal in Five Years
West Bengal Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari aims to transform the state by adopting at least 50% of Gujarat's development model within five years, seeking self-reliance after decades of Left Front and Trinamool Congress rule. Speaking at a Seva Sankalp Abhiyan event, he linked this goal to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership and cited recent BJP bypoll victories as support for the development agenda. Adhikari described Gujarat as a model state following his visit there but did not specify detailed benchmarks for progress.
