The incident involving the Prime Minister eating *Jhalmuri* has sparked various reactions within political circles. Taking a jibe at the matter, Sayani Ghosh remarked, “He will gradually have to consume many other things as well...”
During his campaign for the West Bengal Assembly elections, Prime Minister Narendra Modi was spotted stopping at a roadside stall to eat *Jhalmuri* while returning from a public rally in Jhargram. His presence in such an unpretentious moment—much like that of a common citizen—quickly caught the attention of locals. Some snapped photographs, others recorded videos, and within moments, the visuals spread across social media, going viral. This episode of the Prime Minister eating *Jhalmuri* has since triggered a flurry of reactions within the political sphere. Trinamool Congress leader and actress Sayani Ghosh took a dig at the situation, stating, “He will gradually have to consume many other things as well.” She argued that the country's Prime Minister has become so ‘free’ that, having set aside other critical issues, he is now compelled to venture into the lanes of Jhargram to eat *Jhalmuri*—all with the sole objective of defeating the Chief Minister. Simultaneously, she also drew attention to the issue of unemployment, asserting that the current state of the nation becomes starkly evident through such behavior displayed by the Prime Minister.
