“Trinamool will make a 4-0 sweep in the by-elections”: TMC national general secretary Abhishek Banerjee

News Desk: Addressing a rally at Gosaba in South 24 Parganas, on Saturday, TMC national general secretary Abhishek Banerjee said that the ruling TMC will win all the four seats in the by-elections. He also claimed that West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee kept her promises and rolled out schemes.

He said “Bypoll was necessitated and in Khardah following the death of two TMC candidates, but the circumstance under which elections are being held in Shantipur and Dinhata are different”

Mr Banerjee claimed “Winning BJP candidates Jagannath Sarkar and Nisith Pramanik resigned as MLAs even after being elected by people. They dishonoured the verdict of people to retain parliamentary berths. The BJP is seeking votes again in those two seats. They will be rejected by people”

“Trinamool will make a 4-0 sweep in the by-elections” he asserted.

Taking a dig at Amit Shah, he said “The former BJP national president and current home minister had promised to dole out Rs 2 lakh crore for the development of Sunderbans and carve out a separate district during his campaigns for assembly polls some months ago. They are still holding power in Delhi but you won’t hear about any follow-up initiatives from them”

“But Mamata Banerjee kept her promises and rolled out schemes like Lakshmir Bhandar” he added.
