In a strong political statement, Trinamool Congress leader Abhishek Banerjee declared Prime Minister Narendra Modi as the 'biggest brand ambassador' for the West Bengal government, led by Mamata Banerjee. He emphasized that Modi's purchase of 'jhalmuri' in Jhargram proves the peaceful transformation under TMC's reign.

Banerjee criticized the BJP for its baseless allegations against TMC, urging critics to remember the region's turbulent past before 2011 when Maoist violence was rampant. He argued that the restored peace in Jangalmahal stands as a significant achievement of Mamata Banerjee's administration.

Highlighting Modi's actions as an endorsement of TMC's success, Banerjee noted that the prime minister eating 'jhalmuri' in Jhargram symbolizes stability, adding that such an event was unimaginable in the troubled past. This, according to him, marks a victory for the people's government.
