BJP to Implement Assam’s Detect Delete, and Deport Model in West Bengal if Elected Nitin Nabin

During a ‘Parivartan Yatra’ rally in Islampur on March 2, 2026, BJP National President Nitin Nabin announced that the party intends to replicate Assam’s “detect, delete, and deport” strategy in West Bengal to address illegal immigration. Nabin claimed that the Election Commission of India has already removed over 50 lakh “infiltrators” from the state’s electoral rolls following the Special Intensive Revision (SIR). He argued that these deletions are crucial to ensure that central welfare schemes benefit only genuine Indian citizens rather than foreigners.

In addition to the immigration policy, Nabin vowed that a BJP-led government would rename the town of Islampur to “Ishwarpur” to honor historical figures like the Rajbanshi reformer Thakur Panchanan Barma and Bengal’s last Hindu king, Lakshman Sen. Throughout his speech, he addressed the crowd as the “people of Ishwarpur.” Accusing Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee of practicing “appeasement politics” and failing to ensure women’s safety, Nabin positioned the BJP as the only force capable of bringing systemic change to West Bengal and aligning its development with the national goal of “Viksit Bharat” by 2047.
