BJP trying to create unrest in Bengal: Partha Chatterjee
Trinamool Congress Secretary General, Dr Partha Chatterjee, Sunday accused BJP of trying to create unrest in the state by indulging in violence and alleged that other opposition parties like the CPI-M and the Congress were also providing support to its activities.
“BJP and other parties like CPI-M and the Congress are trying to create unrest in Bengal. Keeping BJP in the front, they are working to destabilise the state,” Dr Chatterjee said.
“There is no place for violence in Bengal. This is an attempt to stop development work being carried out by Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee despite several roadblocks,” Dr Chatterjee added.
“These people are trying to destabilise the state by indulging in violence, but people of Bengal will not tolerate such activities,” he said.
Terming as political gimmick the BJP's attempt to reach relief materials like food and blankets to the affected people in Makhra, where prohibitory orders under Section 144 CrPC are in force for the last few days, Dr Chatterjee said, “Where were they for all these years? I have not seen them giving even puffed rice to anybody earlier.”
