Shah, along with BJP candidate Roopa Ganguly and other leaders, waved from atop a decorated truck covered with saffron hues as people lined up along both sides of the road in the congested town located in South 24 Parganas district.
Thousands of jubilant BJP supporters, holding giant party flags and chanting "Bharat Mata Ki Jai" and other slogans, walked in the road show.
Talking to reporters during the event, Shah said TMC supremo Mamata Banerjee needs to be ousted from power.
"It is time to remove Mamata didi, who came to power with the slogan of 'Maa, Maati, Manush' (mother, land, people) but has left Bengal at the mercy of goons. Her only goal now is to make her nephew the chief minister," Shah said.
The Union home minister said the BJP prepared a roadmap for the development of Kolkata and its adjoining areas like Sonarpur.
