PM Modi told the workers to focus on the booths. In his words, “Put all your strength in the booths. Give the most importance to the booths.” He also told the workers, “Go to the people. Tell the voters what the BJP’s charge sheet and manifesto are.”​

In the virtual meeting, PM Modi said, “Talk more to women and the youth.” He also said, “Have a meeting with women. Go to a house and sit in a discussion with 20–25 women.”​ He advised the workers to read the manifesto in detail. In his words, “What are the benefits for women and youth? See the manifesto and convince the people.”​

PM Modi further said that BJP workers should go door to door to explain why factories and industries are not being built in the state. He instructed that the voters of the state should be made aware that where there is an atmosphere of fear and violence, there is no business and commerce.​

PM Modi also advised his workers to go to Matuas and Namasudras, sources said. He told them, “Go to the houses of the Matuas. Go to the Namasudras. Because the Trinamool is going to the Matuas and saying that your names have been removed (by the Modi government). You will not be able to stay in the country. They are threatening those people. They are telling the infiltrators that you have no fear.”​

The Prime Minister added, “Those who do not have the right to stay in this country, they are assuring them that they will make arrangements (Trinamool). Those who are their own people are told that they will make arrangements. You go door to door and tell them that no matter how much the Trinamool scares them, arrangements will be made to keep the Matuas in this country through the Citizenship Amendment Act. Stop being afraid.”​

PM Modi also urged workers to ensure that the BJP not only wins in West Bengal but also increases its margin of victory. He said, “Remember one thing, the bigger the margin of victory, the more relieved West Bengal will be. I believe this time, Trinamool is going, and BJP is coming. Increase the margin and ensure victory even more.”​

In the meeting, PM Modi advised the workers to talk more with farmers, especially potato farmers. He said, “Talk to farmers and potato farmers. Go and tell them that the syndicates are buying potatoes at Rs 2 per kg and selling them at Rs 25 when the price increases. Those who grow the crops are not getting the price; those who loot them are getting the profit.”​

According to BJP sources, PM Modi has asked workers to compile a list of crimes that have occurred in their areas. He advised them to present that list to the people.​
