Amid the second phase of Lok Sabha polling on Friday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed an election rally in West Bengal's Malda. Hailing mangoes and makhana produced in Malda, the PM promised that the BJP would set up a food processing unit in Malda.

He mentioned that this food processing industry will help increase the income of the farmers in Malda. 

PM Modi said, "The mangoes and makhana produced by the farmers of Malda are world-famous. We will set up a food processing industry which will help increase the income of the farmers. Trinamool Congress (TMC) demands their share in that also."

He alleged that both the TMC and Congress are just pretending to be in conflict in the state, but the character and ideology of these parties is the same.
