BJP is now getting stronger in West Bengal: Amit Shah

Kolkata, Aug 3 (IBNS) The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is increasingly getting stronger in West Bengal and now the job of giving the ruling Trinamool Congress sleepless night is ours, said BJP president Amit Shah here on Wednesday.

"The BJP is getting stronger in Bengal. We got 4 percent votes in 2011. We got 10 percent this time," he said addressing party workers at the Mahajati Sadan here.

He said while the BJP got only three seats in the recent assembly polls, but workers worked hard and coming to power is not the only aim of the BJP.

He said the party has got more than 20,000 votes in 90 seats.

Shah is in Kolkata to meet senior leaders and discuss the roadmap for the 2019 general elections.
