Kolkata : Trinamool Congress (TMC) supremo and former West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee on Tuesday launched a scathing attack on the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and said that it will soon be “removed from power in Delhi. Speaking at a meeting of TMC MLAs at her residence, Mamata alleged that minority communities and roadside hawkers are being targeted by the newly formed BJP government in West Bengal. “Minority communities are being targeted.
“This government is tampering with our constitutional ideas and values,” Mamata claimed, criticising the Suvendu Adhikari-led state government. She also suggested that the BJP, which leads the country’s ruling National Democratic Alliance, will lose power in the Centre in the near future. “BJP will be removed from power in Delhi in coming days,” she remarked. The meeting chaired by Mamata was also attended by Abhishek, who is also the national general secretary of the TMC.
Come what may, fight will continue against BJP.” It is worth mentioning here that the KMC, which sent the demolition notice, is still under the control of the TMC, and party MLA Firhad Hakim, considered a close aide of Mamata, is the mayor of Kolkata. Abhishek also took a dig at CM Adhikari, referencing the controversial Narada sting operation from 2014, when the latter was still in the TMC. “Our state had many chief ministers but none like the current one.
Abhishek made fun of Chief Minister Adhikari by bringing up the contentious Narada sting operation from 2014, while the latter was still a member of the TMC. “Our state had many chief ministers but none like the current one. The one who was seen taking money on camera has been made CM,” the TMC parliamentary said. The gathering coincided with the TMC’s plans to begin a series of protests against hawkers being forcibly evicted on May 21 and what it refers to as “bulldozer culture unleashed by BJP.”
