The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has accused West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee of making threatening remarks towards Union Home Minister Amit Shah. The BJP alleges Banerjee is protecting illegal immigrants for political gain, which they claim undermines democracy and challenges the Home Minister. The party stated they will take strict action against illegal immigration after the 2026 assembly elections. This has heightened political tensions between the BJP and Banerjee's Trinamool Congress (TMC) in West Bengal.
