Earlier, Shah hit out at the ruling Trinamool Congress (TMC) Government in West Bengal for its alleged appeasement politics, saying, "Appeasement politics is hurting the state’s tradition. "
After offering a special puja at the Dakshineswar Kali Temple, Shah said his prayers to the Goddess Bhavatarini were for the overall welfare of India under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

"Bengal is the land of many spritual people like Swami Vivekananda, Pranavananda and Rishi Aurobinda, and my appeal to the people of the state is to remember saintly men and follow them for restoration of the glorious days," Shah told the waiting mediaperons after emerging out of the main temple, which was built by Rani Rashmoni in 1855 and Shree Shree Ramakrishna was one of the main priests in the 19th century.
Shah began his day's work by offering prayers to the Goddess Kali and later said whenever he finds time during the visit in the city he preferred to offer prayers to Goddess Bhavatarini at Dakshineswar.
He said his prayers to the Goddess revolved around the welfare of the country as a whole and to make India became the best place in the World.
