Bengal milk vendor uses saffron-painted milk container to canvas for BJP

A milk vendor from Raiganj in West Bengal coloured his milk container in saffron in order to increase the love for the BJP among the people in the upcoming elections. 

West Bengal is poised for a drama-filled Assembly election, of a kind never before witnessed in the state. 

In order to increase the love for the BJP among the people in the upcoming elections, a milk trader from Raiganj has coloured his milk container in saffron so that Bengal becomes saffron in the upcoming elections. 

The milk trader named Raja Dutta said, " I have been involved in this business for about 10 years. It was the time of Trinamool Congress. I was also a fan of Didi after hearing her promise. I painted all my milk containers blue. But now, I have lost all faith in her. I have become a fan of Narendra Modi. I want the BJP to win in the state in this election. I want the state to be painted with saffron colour.”

Raja Dutta is a resident of Malgram area of Barua gram panchayat, 5 km away from Raiganj city. For the last ten to twelve years, this young man in his thirties has made it his job to supply cow's milk in sweet shops and at home in different areas of Raiganj city. 

The BJP has welcomed the move, though it has been ridiculed by the Trinamool Congress.
