TMYC President Abhishek Banerjee slams the Centre and Left at Dumdum rally

Trinamool Youth Congress President and Lok Sabha MP Abhishek Banerjee today held a mass meeting at Lichubagan Math, Gorabazar in Dum Dum.

The rally was organised by the North 24 Parganas Youth Congress where various leaders of the party highlighted the developmental programmes of the Maa Mati Manush Government and also condemned the campaign of slander and misinformation by the combined opposition of CPI(M)-BJP-Congress.

Abhishek Banerjee, who was the chief speaker of the rally, slammed the Opposition for their canards against Mamata Banerjee. “The more you attack her, the stronger she will become with the blessings of the people,” he said.

“We have strengthened every step of administration, from gram sabhas to the top most level. We want to ensure that development can flow freely to the people,” commented the TMYC President.

He added that Mamata Banerjee had fulfilled all the promises made in the Manifesto. Taking a dig at the BJP he said that the party in power at Centre is fooling people in the name of ‘achhe din’.

“Today the biggest challenge for the people of India is to bring back Modi ji from his foreign pleasure trips,” he remarked.

Just because someone is elected to from govt at Centre doesn’t mean they can tell us what to eat and what to wear, he added while slamming the Centre for rising prices of essential commodities and recent hike in rail fare.

Abhishek Banerjee maintained that TMC believed in communal harmony. “TMC stands for Temple, Mosque, Church” he commented.

Reach out to people: Abhishek Banerjee to party workers in Bankura

Party workers have to work hard to promote the message of development. This message of party Chief Mamata Banerjee was conveyed to the workers in Bankura by Trinamool Youth Congress President Abhishek Banerjee on Friday.

Abhishek has begun his district visits where he will be addressing workshops for grassroots workers of the party. While speaking at one such meeting in Barjora, Bankura, TMYC President said: “People will decide who will sit in offices of power. Reach out to people. Work unitedly to serve people.”

He said that the party leadership had knowledge of every action by block and district leadership. He said, “A few people cannot be allowed to bring shame to the party because of their wrong actions.”

Abhishek reiterated that there is no scope for complacency in the party. 2011 elections were fought on the plank of change and 2016 will be fought on the plank of development.

He instructed workers to publicise the developmental initiatives undertaken by West Bengal government in the last four and a half years.  He asked them to go to every village and reach out to people.

Mamata Banerjee’s resolve will get stronger: Abhishek Banerjee at 21 July rally

TMYC President Abhishek Banerjee had taken up the responsibility to organize the mammoth July 21 rally. Senior Trinamool leaders like Subrata Bakshi, Saugata Roy, Partha Chatterjee, Subhendu Adhikari, Firhad Hakim and Sudip Bandyopadhyay lauded Abhishek’s efforts at different times of the day.

On Tuesday, it was difficult to miss Abhishek working behind the scenes. The only time he allowed himself a smile was long after the meeting had winded up.

Earlier in the day, Abhishek took a dig at CPM in his speech, saying, “A few things can’t be returned: A word when said, a shot when fired, a time when wasted and CPM when they loose an election.”

Attacking the media, he added, “The more you burn iron, it gets stronger. Likewise with Mamata Banerjee. The more you attack her, the stronger she gets. For you can’t see what she is doing. For you there is no Kanyashree, no new employment and no development. But people are seeing it. And they are the ones who will keep her in power.”

Abhishek Banerjee has been the main campaigner in the districts. Moreover, it was the Trinamool Youth Congress that formally organized the rally.

Congress didn’t give a penny to Bengal when it was in power at Centre: Abhishek Banerjee

Vote for Trinamool, Vote for Mamata: Abhishek Banerjee in Bardhaman

“Vote for Mamata!” was MP and president of Trinamool Youth Congress, Abhishek Banerjee’s rallying cry at the public meeting for the municipal election in Memari, in Bardhaman district, on Monday. Earlier in the evening, in Kalna (also in Bardhaman district), on the occasion of another municipal election-campaign meeting, Abhishek Banerjee underscored the Trinamool Chairperson’s championing role in the party, saying, “Those who have stood as candidates for the party, are all Mamata Banerjees.”

Monday saw another round of mammoth campaign rallies in Kalna and Memari. Senior leader and Rajya Sabha MP, Derek O’Brien and another leader, noted singer Indranil Sen had also joined Abhishek Banerjee in urging the masses to vote to victory Trinamool Congress once again. And there was no doubt, seeing the huge crowds at both the places.

Derek O’Brien backed Abhishek by saying, “You don’t need to worry about who has been chosen, or not chosen, as a candidate. Press the twin flowers-labelled button and your vote will reach Kalighat straight.”

To allegations of poll-related violence, Abhishek Banerjee emphatically responded, “The opposition is making false accusations about poll-centric violence during the Kolkata corporation elections. Let them prove even one such incident.” The CPI(M), the Congress and the BJP have not managed to do even 5 per cent of the developmental work done by Trinamool, he added.
