While addressing party workers at the South 24 Paraganas, he said that he could say with confidence that the Lotus would bloom in Bengal.
There is not a car in our convoy that was not attacked. I am safe because I was travelling in a bullet proof car. This state of lawlessness and intolerance in West Bengal has to end, he also said. What has happened today is a shame on democracy, Nadda also said.
