Hurling the dynastic politics barb at the Trinamool Congress (TMC) supremo Mamata Banerjee, Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Sunday said that she wants to make ‘bhatija’ (nephew) the Chief Minister West Bengal.
Shah also said that unlike Mamata, Prime Minister Narendra Modi wants to make ‘Sonar Bangla’ (Golden Bengal).
“I want to tell you (people) that Mamata ji wants to make ‘bhatija’ the Chief Minister and Modi ji wants to make ‘Sonar Bangla’ ( Golden Bengal). Tell me do you want to make ‘bhatija’ the Chief Minister or do you want ‘Sonar Bangla.’ If you want Sonar Bangla then vote the BJP to power,” said Shah. He was speaking at a rally at Egra in East Medinipur.
He further alleged that even though no work is done in Bengal without paying cut money and facing extortion but the Chief Minister is not bothered about it as she gets ‘bhatja’s’ cut money.
“For every work one has to give cut money and there is also ‘tolabaji’ (extortion). But Mamat didi says whats wrong if someone takes Rs.500. Mamata didi your situation is different. You get nephew’s cut money. But for the poor worker and fisherman in Bengal. Rs,500 is a big amount,” said Shah.
Shah warned that TMC cadres who murdered more than 130 BJP workers in Bengal should not think they will be spared as after the BJP comes to power in the state. the culprits will be thrown behind bars .
“TMC goons have killed more than 130 BJP workers. They should not think that they will get away with it. The current Government will go on May 2 and those who killed our workers will be thrown behind bars,” said Shah.
Shah also said that under the TMC Government people have to approach the court for doing Durga Puja and Saraswati Puja in Bengal but the situation will change after the BJP comes to power in the State.
“I am telling if you vote BJP to power once then no one will be able to obstruct Saraswati Puja and Durga Puja in Bengal,” said Shah.
Accusing the TMC supremo of failing to keep her promise of bringing change in Bengal, Shah said that infiltration was continuing in the state without any change.
“Can Mamata didi free Bengal from infiltrators? You vote BJP to power in Bengal and under Modi ji’s leadership and in five years we will free Bengal from infiltrators,” said Shah.
