News Desk: Posters and hoarding with the TMC supremo Mamata Banerjee’s face were vandalised and defaced by certain elements in Goa. Several TMC hoardings and billboards across Goa were pulled down, destroyed, and smeared with ink.
The Goa unit of the TMC alleged that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) conducted a closed-door meeting during which it was decided that hoardings across Goa featuring Mamata Banerjee would be damaged overnight, with her photograph defaced.
“Goa TMC condemns this act of vandalism that amounts to insulting a woman who is the only sitting female Chief Minister in the country. Goans will definitely give a befitting response to such a vengeful Government. The latest pictures are evidence of how the BJP has not just vandalised Goa TMC branding but has done so at the cost of Goans” a press release by the Goa TMC stated.
“While defacing Mamata Banerjee’s face in hoardings is in itself a shameful act, what’s more, alarming is how the BJP, drunk on power, is destroying local businesses. They forget that in all such contracts it is the liability of the businessmen or the vendor to replace any damaged hoarding with their own money. So, clearly, the BJP is not just spreading hate but is also attacking the livelihood of hundreds of fellow Goans by destroying their business. Such acts are an attack on the fearless atmosphere for business” the press release further said.
