News Desk: Addressing an election rally at Ranaghat on Monday, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee challenged the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) that the BJP won’t succeed in dividing the people of West Bengal. She assured that she will order a probe to find out the truth behind the Cooch Behar killings.
She said “Some political leaders are threatening of more Sitalkuchi-like incidents, while others are saying that the death toll should have been higher. I am stunned and shocked to see such reactions. What are these leaders up to? They should be politically banned. BJP is killing its own workers and leaders and damaging their vehicles to bring a bad name to the TMC. One of the BJP MPs, contesting the assembly polls, has herself damaged the windscreen of her car to give a bad name to the TMC. Before conspiring to kill four persons in CISF firing, the BJP, a party of murderers, killed a Rajbonshi brother”
“The BJP is communalizing the murder of young voters. You cannot succeed in your nefarious game to divide the people of West Bengal. This is not Uttar Pradesh or Gujarat. After returning to power, I will order a probe to unravel the sequence of events, who were involved, how it all started, whether any rumour was at play…everything. Don’t vote for a party that encourages firing on voters standing in a queue” she added.
She also said “Our government has given land rights to people settled in refugee colonies. The BJP has sent 14 lakh Bengalis in Assam to detention camps. The same fate may await you if they come to power in West Bengal. I am a Brahmin woman and a devout Hindu. I know mantras by heart. I consider myself inseparable from Muslims, Christians, Buddhists, Sikhs, SCs, STs, OBCs and all other communities. We don’t exclude anyone in the name of caste, community or religion. Unlike the BJP, we consider everyone as humans”
