Kolkata (West Bengal) [India], August 29 (ANI): The Bharatiya Janata Party MP Jyotirmay Singh Mahato has slammed West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, accusing her of indulging in language politics and betraying Bengal.
“Mamata Banerjee is doing language politics. This does not suit her. If anyone has betrayed Bengal the most, it is Mamata Banerjee,” Mahato told ANI.
“This count includes more than one crore Rohingyas, Bangladeshi infiltrators and many others who died years ago. These include the parents of many TMC ministers, and their names are also in the list. I think there are not one crore, but one and a quarter crore people who do not live here, but whose names are in the voter list. I believe all of them should be removed,” he added.
Meanwhile, addressing a gathering on the occasion of Triamool Chatra Parishad (TMCP) foundation day in Kolkata on Thursday, Mamata Banerjee hit out at the Centre and ECI over Special Intensive Revision (SIR).
“This is a ‘Lollipop Sarkar’. They are trying to threaten the BDO, SDO, DM, and Police. They are saying that either they will take away their jobs or put them in jail. The ECI comes and goes, but the State Government remains. The ECI has a lifespan of 3 months only during elections. Just like we have Lakshmir Bhandar, we also know about your ‘Corruption Bhandar’. I will expose everything,” West Bengal CM said.
“On one hand, there is the BJP; on the other hand, we have their friend, the Left Front. I respect the chair of the ECI. It suits children to have a lollipop, but it does not suit the ECI to act like a lollipop. This is Bengal. Kolkata was once the capital of undivided India. The British then changed it because they knew that even if they defeated other States, they could not fight us,” she added.
CM Mamata also said that people of Bengal will not tolerate the “torture” of the BJP here.
“During the partition of Bangladesh, the people’s language was Bangla, that’s why they speak in Bangla… BJP is conducting a survey by bringing a 500-member team to delete names from the electoral roll. Don’t share your documents with them. Because they’re planning to collect your documents and remove your names from the voter list. Just take an Aadhar card because it’s a mandatory ID proof,” she said. (ANI)
