Viral social media videos show a group of Bengali migrant workers arriving at Mathabhanga railway station in West Bengal. The workers are chanting "Jai Shri Ram" and declaring their intent to defeat Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and her Trinamool Congress (TMC) party in the upcoming 2026 state assembly polls. They blame Banerjee's "misrule" for forcing them to leave the state for employment and say they are rushing back amid fears related to voter list revisions ahead of the election.
