Modi's words that Bangladeshi infiltrators will be thrown out have stirred a massive controversy in West Bengal with parties like the Trinamool Congress, Congress and Left attacking Modi in equal terms. They said that Modi was trying to create division in Bengal.

State BJP president Rahul Sinha said if Modi needed to go to jail for raking up the Bangladeshi infiltrator issue, Mamata Banerjee should be first person to go to jail for she had thrown a bunch of papers on the table of former deputy Lok Sabha speaker Charanjit Singh Atwal citing a list of Bangladeshi nationals who were included in the voters' list by the previous Left government in Bengal.
