Mamata Banerjee slams BJP; calls it a ‘junk party’

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Monday (January 11) claimed that the BJP cadres will behave like Donald Trump supporters the day they lose the Bengal polls.

While addressing a rally in Nadia district, Banerjee said, “The day the BJP loses elections, it’s cadre and supporters will behave like Donald Trump supporters.”
 

Mamata Banerjee said that the BJP has turned into a “junk” party. It is trying to strengthen its base in Bengal by making false promises. The party is “filling up its rank and file with corrupt and rotten leaders from other parties”.
 

Slamming the BJP leaders, the CM said, “The BJP runs the party like a washing machine, where corrupt leaders turn into saints the moment, they join them.”

At the rally, Mamata Banerjee demanded the immediate repeal of the three contentious farm laws against which the farmer unions are agitating at Delhi border points.
 

Mamata Banerjee said that the country will soon face a food crisis if the Centre remains adamant on new farm laws.
