“We will introduce the Utoject for the Bhairab-Sialmari-Jalanga basin with a 2,000 crores rupees fund for upgradation of existing irrigation network and construction of new canals,” reads the BJP manifesto, which was released on Sunday in the presence of Amit Shah.
What are you guys planning to do?
Like translocate three rivers from south Bengal to north Bengal?
Why the hell are you guys trying to fool people?

using south Bengal rivers for irrigation in north Bengal is an impossibility.
The three rivers mentioned in the 13th page of the manifesto are on the right bank of the Ganga, the mighty river that divides north and south Bengal, and flow through Murshidabad district.
The Bhairab and the Sialmari merge with the Jalangi (referred to as “Jalanga” in the manifesto) at different locations in Murshidabad district and the Jalangi eventually joins the Hooghly near Mayapur in Nadia district.
Jalanga noy Jalangi ota!
Jalanga noy Jalangi ota!
All these three rivers are distributaries of the Ganga and flow southwards…. How can they help develop a command area in the northern districts, which are on the left bank of the Ganga and beyond?” -renowned river expert Kalyan Rudra.
