BJP Creates Controversies, You Stay Silent: Abhishek Banerjee To WB Guv

Mumbai: TMC MP Abhishek Banerjee on Monday accused West Bengal Governor Jagdeep Dhankhar of remaining silent when BJP leaders make controversial statements and insult CM Mamata Banerjee.

Addressing a public meeting at Shyamnagar in North 24 Parganas district, Banerjee took a dig at Dhankhar’s statement that he has “crossed the red line”, adding that there was no need for such reaction as he did not name any judge or mentioned any particular judgment. Also Read: High Inflation, Financial Mismanagement Synonymous With Modi Govt’s 8 Yrs: TMC

Banerjee said, “The citizen of this country is free to criticize the court’s decision. A day before yesterday, I made some remarks. The governor claimed that I have crossed the red line. People of the state are well aware of who is crossing the line. I had said that in the judiciary, 99 per cent of people are good, only 1% of them follow the instructions of those who control the levers of power.”

“If I say something about the judiciary, the governor reacts to it. I have full respect for the judiciary. But tell me who is crossing the red line?” He asked.

The TMC leader claimed that BJP leaders Dilip Ghosh, Biplab Deb and others have criticized the judiciary.

“Have you seen the governor criticizing these leaders?” They said. Questioning the credibility of the CBI, Banerjee said the agency did not call all the people named by the owner of the firm in the Saradha chit fund scam.

Banerjee said the doors of her party are currently closed for those leaders who have joined the BJP and want to return. He made this statement in the presence of Barrackpore MP Arjun Singh, who recently returned to the TMC after three years of joining the saffron camp.
