KOLKATA: On the occasion of Rajasthan Diwas, Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee stated that the “Rajasthani” and “Marwari” communities in the state will always remain an essential part of West Bengal, recognising their contributions to the overall development of the region.
In a social media statement issued on Monday, the Chief Minister claimed that the invaluable contributions of the 'Rajasthani' and 'Marwari' fraternities in West Bengal across various sectors have played a significant role in the state's growth and development.
She has also claimed that the Rajasthani and the Marwari fraternity in West Bengal will always remain an integral part of the “Bengal family”.
“We remain committed to ensuring that you continue to grow, flourish, and prosper in an environment of peace, joy, and harmony, along with everyone, ” the Chief Minister said in her social media post.
Political analysts said that this Rajasthan Diwas message from the Chief Minister amid the crucial two-phase Assembly polls in the state next month is a strategic message to address the Rajasthani and the Marwari society in the state, who have been a traditionally dedicated vote bank of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in the state.
