NEW DELHI: Political tensions between the BJP and the Trinamool Congress (TMC) escalated on Saturday after Bihar Minister Ram Kripal Yadav and senior BJP leader Dilip Ghosh launched a scathing attack on West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee over her remarks on the voter list revision exercise in the state.
Speaking to IANS, Bihar Minister Ram Kripal Yadav criticised Mamata Banerjee’s political conduct, saying she must exercise restraint in her statements and actions.
“Mamata Banerjee should know the certain limit to how far she can speak and act in politics. She seems to believe that by abusing the government and Narendra Modi, her support from NRI and other voters will grow, ” Yadav said.
He accused the West Bengal Chief Minister of deliberately creating political controversy to remain in the spotlight and alleged that such remarks undermine democratic institutions.
