Kolkata: Indian PM Narendra Modi thanked people of West Bengal after addressing a rally at the iconic Brigade ground in Kolkata on Sunday, just days before the state votes in the first phase of the Assembly Polls.

Modi said Bharatiya Janata Party is the preferred choice of the people in the state which has been ruled by CM Mamata Banerjee's Trinamool Congress for the past 10 years.

Modi tweeted: "Thank you Kolkata! Thank you West Bengal. BJP is the state’s preferred choice."

Modi sharpened his attack against CM Mamata Banerjee ahead of the West Bengal Assembly polls and asked people of the state to vote for his Bharatiya Janata Party which will help in attaining the dream of building 'Sonar Bangla'.

Addressing a mega rally at iconic Brigade Parade ground here, he said, “Today, I have come here to assure you of Bengal's development, to increase investment here, to protect Bengal's culture and to bring change.”

Modi said, “We promise to bring ‘Asol Poriborton’ in Bengal.”

He said, "Ashol Poriborton means Bengal, where trade and business flourished, where maximum investment came. Ashol Poriborton means Bengal, which has the modern infrastructure of the 21st century."
