“Mamata Banerjee is trying to divide people by asking for Muslim votes”: Abbas Siddiqui

News Desk: ISF founder Abbas Siddiqui accused West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee of trying to divide people of West Bengal by seeking Muslim votes. He also claimed that for her Muslims will be blamed if any violence happens.

He said “Mamata Banerjee is trying to divide people by asking for Muslim votes. This is unjust. Why is she saying that Hindu and Muslim votes should not be divided? People will vote for whoever they like. She is saying that the 30 per cent votes should not be divided, which means the BJP should aim for the 70 per cent votes. Doesn’t she need the 70 per cent votes? Trying to create a divide among the people goes against the Constitution, against democracy”

“She is trying to foment trouble for Muslims by asking for their votes again and again as this will lead to disquiet in the community. Ultimately Muslims will be blamed if any such things happen” he added.
