Mamata Banerjee government murdered democracy in Bengal, says MP Tejasvi Surya

Member of Parliament Tejasvi Surya on Thursday accused the Trinamool Congress government led by Mamata Banerjee of “murdering” Democracy and constitutional rule of law in the state. BJYM President Surya also accused the police of brutally attacking the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) cadres when they carried out a march to the State secretariat Nabanna on Thursday.

During a press conference following the march, Surya said, “It’s a black day today. Democracy and constitutional rule of law were murdered by Mamata Banerjee govt in broad daylight today.”

Surya further accused the Mamata Banerjee-run administration in Bengal of being the most corrupt government in the country. He said, “ India’s most corrupt govt is in West Bengal. Unemployment is rising due to this syndicate and cut money government.”

Surya further stated, “A youth who raises voice against this, is politically murdered. In the past two years over 120 BJP and BJP Yuva Morcha workers have been murdered in a barbaric & callous manner in the state.”

He added, “This is my first protest, we will throw this government out.”

BJP President Jagat Prakash Nadda also tweeted his accusing the Trinamool Congress government in Bengal of “Beating up peaceful protestors, hurling country-made bombs and using water cannon on their protest march show Mamata Banerjee’s frustration because she knows that her days in power are numbered and the people of Bengal have made up their mind to throw out her tyrannical govt.”

Nadda accused the TMC Supremo of using the government machinery to unleash brute force upon BJP ‘karyakartas’. He stated, “Mamata Banerjee’s karyakartas and the Gov machinery led by her have unleashed brute force upon BJP karyakartas in an attempt to prevent them from holding protests against her tyrannical & bloodied misrule in West Bengal. Such misuse of power is totally unacceptable & condemnable.”

Nadda launched a volley of verbal attacks against the TMC regime in Bengal and said, “The only thing Mamata Banerjee’s government has done better than the previous Left regimes is increasing brutality and political violence against political opponents. Bengal has been burning under her administration, which patronises violent elements.”

The legislative assembly election in West Bengal will be held in 2021. The BJP has made inroads in Bengal following their 18 seat victory in the state during the 2019 general elections.
