NEW DELHI: A war of words has erupted between the TMC and BJP following the seizure of arms and ammunitions during raids conducted by CBI on Friday in Sandeshkali.
Kicking off an attack on the Modi government, TMC chief Mamata Banerjee on Saturday alleged that the raid was conducted by the central agency without informing the local West Bengal police. She accused the Modi government of resorting to central law enforcement agencies to intimidate the Opposition parties.
Reacting to Mamatha's charges BJP national president JP Nadda escalated his war of words against the West Bengal CM on Sunday. In a video message, Nadda launched a fresh broadside against TMC accusing the state government in West Bengal of spreading anarchy through lawlessness.
"In a raid conducted at Sandeshkhali, the CBI has recovered 3 foreign revolvers, 1 police revolver, 1 foreign pistol and from this haul of arms, we can understand how Mamata Banerjee's government is spreading anarchy in West Bengal",Nadda said.
Nadda said that the people of state will give a befitting reply to it in this general elections for the Lok Sabha. "Mamata Banerjee government is ruining the state and public will give you( TMC) a befitting reply",he cautioned.
After the second phase of polling on Saturday, Nadda also predicted a massive victory of BJP in West Bengal in the general elections for the 18th LS. "We will win more 35 LS seats and rescue the state from anarchy with the support of people," said the BJP chief.
