“People of West Bengal will punish Mamata Banerjee for 10 years of misrule”: Prime Minister Narendra Modi

News Desk: Addressing an election rally in Purulia, PM Modi said the people of West Bengal will punish Mamata Banerjee for 10 years of misrule and politics of appeasement.

He said

“TMC has created a new breed of Maoists in Bengal who loot public money. People of West Bengal will punish Mamata Banerjee for 10 years of misrule and politics of appeasement.

Didi bole Khela Hobe, BJP bole chaakri hobe. Didi bole khela hobe, BJP bole vikas hobe. Didi bole khela hobe, BJP bole shiksha hobe….Khela shesh hobe, vikas aarambh hobe….

TMC is engaged in playing games, have abandoned farmers. These people have given Purulia a life riddled with a water crisis. They have given Purulia, migration. They have given the poor of Purulia, discriminatory governance. They have given Purulia an identity of being one of the most backward areas of the country. First the Left and then the TMC government didn’t let industries develop in Purulia. The kind of work that should’ve been done for irrigation, didn’t take place. I know the problems faced in rearing livestock due to less water. TMC govt was busy in its khel by leaving farming on its own.

This land is a witness to Lord Ram and Goddess Sita’s exile. This land has Sitakund. It is also said that when goddess Sita was thirsty, Lord Ram got water from the ground by hitting it with an arrow…It is an irony that Purulia faces water crisis today.

Bengal has made up its mind long back. It’s been saying ‘Lok Sabha mein TMC half aur iss baar poori saaf’. Seeing this determination, didi is taking out her frustration on me. But for us, she’s a daughter like crores of daughters of India. Respect for them is part of our culture”
