News Desk: BJP President JP Nadda on Tuesday accused Trinamool Congress (TMC) of “vandalising” its Ambedkar yatra in Kakdwip, West Bengal.
He said “I had inaugurated the yatra from Kotulpur but the yatra that was scheduled to start from Kakdwip was vandalised by TMC goons, they tried to stop it. The BJP condemns it. The BJP had decided it will take out two Ambedkar yatras, one from Kakdwip and another from Kotulpur. These yatras were planned from the point of view of the development of our Schedule Caste brothers, for their harmony. They were organised to glorify Dr Ambdekar’s life, the way he worked for the upliftment of the society and specifically to bring the brothers of the Scheduled caste into the mainstream of our society”
He added “The BJP was trying to take forward the ideologies of Dr Ambedkar through these yatras and establish peace and harmony in the society, but the TMC did not let that happen. TMC is resorting to vandalism because of restlessness and they know BJP will form a government in West Bengal”
Earlier on Tuesday, Nadda said “Mamata Banerjee won elections in the name of Ma, Mati, Manush. During the last decade, your party was engaged in torturing women, killing BJP workers, dictatorship, extortion and politics of appeasement. I am told that Mamata Banerjee is now doing Chandi Path. But in the last 10 years, you have been engaged in minority appeasement. You have stopped Saraswati Puja in the state and immersion of idols of goddess Durga. During the stone laying ceremony of Ram Mandir at Ayodhya, you stopped people from offering puja in the state”
