BJP Burdwan rally a big flop show: Partha Chatterjee

Partha Chatterjee, Secretary General, All India Trinamool Congress, today addressed a press conference at Trinamool Bhavan.
Here is what he said:
- Today’s BJP rally at Bardhaman was a flop-show. Main speaker’s speech lasted only a few minutes.
- People who have no capacity to bloom shapla, are talking of lotus blooming in Bengal.
- I hope Amit babu has understood it is difficult for lotus to bloom in Bengal.
- The political culture of Bengal has no place for bad utterances like “Bhaag Bhaag”.
- Mamata Banerjee has a long history of struggle and people’s movements in Bengal. BJP has no such history.
- BJP’s campaign is based on only propaganda. They want to uproot TMC from power through missed calls.
- If Rahul Sinha cared about Bengal, he would speak out against Center’s negligence towards the State.
- The way Mr Rahul Sinha used the name of a particular community, in a derogatory manner, is deplorable.
