PM Modi lambasts CM Mamata Banerjee, says TMC wiped out in half of the election
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday continued his attacks on West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee during his campaign for the ongoing Assembly polls and said that her rage continues to grow.
FollowPrime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday addressed a rally in Bardhaman, West Bengal, where he said that chief minister Mamata Banerjee's political innings will end with the result on May 2.
Drawing a cricket analogy, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Monday the people of Bengal have hit so many fours and sixes in the first four phases of the assembly polls that the BJP has already completed its century and the TMC is on course to being wiped out.
"In the four-phase election, the conscious people of Bengal hit so many fours and sixes that the seats of BJP have become centuries. Those who were thinking of playing with you have become very well with them," PM Modi said.
"Didi's bitterness, her anger, her fury continues to grow. Do you know why? I will tell you. Because in half of the elections held in Bengal, you have completely wiped out the TMC," he claimed.
"That is, TMC is completely wiped out in half the election," PM Modi reiterated.
Alleging that Banerjee incited people against central forces, he referred to the killing of four people in the firing by CISF personnel in Cooch Behar on April 10.
"Your (Banerjee''s) policies have snuffed out the lives of children of countless mothers," he said.
PM, adding that Banerjee's Maa, Mati, Manush slogan stands for, "tormenting 'Ma', looting 'Mati' (motherland) and bloodshed of 'Manush' (people)".
Modi castigated Banerjee over a TMC leader and candidate’s comments against the Scheduled Castes equating them with beggars.
"Didi calls herself a Royal Bengal Tiger. You tell me is it possible for someone to say such things without her permission? Such comments hurt the soul of Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar. You have committed the biggest mistake, the biggest sin by insulting Dalits, Didi," Modi said.
Accusing Benerjee of dividing people, Modi said "Jukto koro-Seva Koro" (uniting people and serving them) is his motto.
"Didi knows Congress could not return once ousted, Left could not return once removed from power, you too will never be able to bounce back," he said.
PM Modi is scheduled to address several public programs in poll-bound West Bengal on Monday. Following the election rally at Talit Sai Centre in Purba Bardhaman district, the PM will also hold rallies in Kalyani University Grounds in Nadia district and the Barasat area of the North 24 Parganas district.
