BJP with Bharat on Instagram: "My Bengal is healing 🥹🪷 79 years after Independence, an elderly couple in Namkhana, South 24 Parganas, finally received electricity in their home. Imagine spending almost an entire lifetime without one of the most basic necessities of modern civilisation. For decades, successive Congress, Left Front and TMC governments failed to ensure that even this basic requirement reached every household. What a shameful reflection of governance! But the story also highlights what accountable leadership and ground-level intervention can achieve. BJP MLA Sumanta Mondal took up the couple's issue and helped facilitate their electricity connection. This is precisely the kind of people-centric approach Bengal needs, where public representatives focus on solving real problems instead of merely making political promises. With BJP now forming the government in West Bengal, people have renewed expectations of development, accountability and better delivery of essential services. No elderly couple should have to wait eight decades for electricity. Development is meaningful only when it reaches the last household, and every citizen deserves dignity, opportunity and basic facilities. #westbengal #bjp #tmc #modi #diwali"
Verdict: Mixed accuracy: the electricity story is not well sourced, while the West Bengal government claim is supported by official listings.

Claim-by-claim breakdown
- Unsupported (56% confidence): An elderly couple in Namkhana, South 24 Parganas, finally received electricity at home after decades without it. Multiple social posts and reposts describe the couple as Gour Das and Kalpana Das and say they received electricity after decades, but the available results are mostly social-media copies rather than authoritative reporting.
- Unsupported (54% confidence): BJP MLA Sumanta Mondal helped facilitate the couple's electricity connection. Search results mention that Sumanta Mondal stepped in, but the available evidence is mainly reposted social content rather than an official statement or established news report.
- Accurate (78% confidence): The BJP is currently forming or running the government in West Bengal. India.gov.in directory search results list Shri Suvendu Adhikari for West Bengal, and wb.gov.in pages identify him as the Hon'ble Chief Minister.
