Mass rape like Hathras did not happen in Bengal because of Mamata Banerjee: Abhishek Banerjee

At a meeting, TMC leader Abhishek Banerjee attacked the BJP on the issue of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes. Assembly elections are approaching in West Bengal. The vote bank of the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes plays a significant role in the election. Therefore, Abhishek Banerjee and Mamata Banerjee shared the same stage on Thursday (February 4) to recover the lost land. 

<p>Abhishek Banerjee said, “If you look at the NCRB's statistics, I would say that in 2018, according to the data, there was a 26 percent increase in oppression of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes in the BJP-ruled states.”<br />&nbsp;</p>

<p>“After the establishment of the TMC government in 2011, there were no incidents of gang rape in our Bengal like Hathras and Balrampur. The reason behind this is Mamata Banerjee. She is protecting Bengal by all means,” he added.<br />&nbsp;</p>

<p>“Those who did politics with Ram Mandir did not invite the President of India to the Bhumi puja of Ram Mandir because he is a Dalit. Not a single Dalit out of 200 priests was kept. The people of the Matua community came to Adhoya with holy water, but they did not accept that water.”<br />&nbsp;</p>
