Ghosh also said that the BJP will act as a vaccine to eradicate the TMC in next year’s Bengal assembly elections.
 

While addressing a rally at Kulpi in South 24 Parganas district, Dilip Ghosh said, “The TMC is a more dangerous virus than COVID-19. The BJP vaccine will eradicate the TMC virus in next year’s assembly elections.”

“Once we are voted to power, we will withdraw all false cases slapped against BJP workers and other opposition activists. But the TMC members who have tortured us will face the music. We will take strict action against them,” he added.
 

Elections to the 294-member assembly are likely to be held in April-May next year.

Terming the TMC the “most undemocratic party”, Ghosh said that the TMC activists were terrorising BJP workers even though the TMC government’s “days are numbered”.

Reacting to Ghosh’s virus comment, TMC secretary-general Partha Chatterjee said such remarks reflect the BJP’s mindset.
