BJP will implement UCC, prevent Bengalis from becoming a minority: Modi

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday (April 11, 2026) promised to implement the Uniform Civil Code in West Bengal to end what he called the “politics of appeasement”. He said the BJP will not let Bengalis become a “minority” in the State.

Addressing a rally at Jangipur in the Muslim-majority Murshidabad district, Mr. Modi said the BJP’s election manifesto, released by Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Friday, is a roadmap to end Trinamool Congress’s ‘maha jungleraj’ in West Bengal.
