On Monday the BJP national president JP Nadda said that the BJP will register thumping wins in the more than 35 constituencies in the state as the people were fed with the ‘anarchy’ in the state under the ruling Trinamool Congress.
Coming down heavily on the TMC regime over the alleged abuse and excesses on women, as well as charges of land-grab in Sandeshkhali, Nadda said it was ‘painful’ to see women coming out on the streets and saying that they were being threatened by goons enjoying the patronage of the ruling party in the state.
In a personalised video address on Sunday, the BJP national chief said, “We have seen how on the watch of the Mamata Banerjee government, the state is being overrun by strongmen and goons, and how the likes of (Sheikh) Shahjahan were intimidating women and posing a threat to their safety in Sandeshkhali. The prevailing situation, in a nutshell, is sensitive and painful. Teams from central investigating agencies, which went to Sandeshkhali to protect the honour and dignity of women, were thwarted and attacked.”
On the recovery of a huge cache of arms and ammunition from the house of a person allegedly linked to a TMC leader, who is believed to be a close aide of Shahjahan, the key Sandeshkhai accused who is currently behind bars in connection with the attack on an ED team earlier, Nadda asked if Mamata’s ‘strongmen’ were threatening people at gunpoint for votes in the ongoing general elections.
