Amit Shah's 'Bhaipo' Dig at Mamata: What It Means for Bengal Politics
- •Union Home Minister Amit Shah used the term 'bhaipo' to target CM Mamata Banerjee and her nephew Abhishek ahead of the 2026 Bengal election.
- •'Bhaipo' (nephew) refers to Abhishek Banerjee; Shah alleged only he profits under the current dispensation.
- •Shah accused the Trinamool Congress regime of 15 years of corruption, fear, infiltration, and a 'toll syndicate'.
- •The BJP previously used 'bhaipo' in the 2021 elections, labeling it 'Pishi-Bhaipor Sarkar' (aunt-nephew government).
- •Abhishek Banerjee challenged BJP leaders to name him directly, denying the allegations.
Why It Matters: Amit Shah's 'bhaipo' jibe highlights BJP's ongoing nepotism and corruption allegations against TMC.
