“This is malicious propaganda. The truth is that the West Bengal government is cooperating, the center is stalled. The fact is that the Modi government has done nothing to help West Bengal. They are yet to release even a portion of the Rs 85,000 cr of outstanding dues that includes unpaid GST dues of Rs 8,000 crore,” Banerjee said.

“Today, the PM, instead of constantly working to resolve his issues, showed a clear concern for the farmers through television addresses. While he publicly claimed his intention to help farmers of WB through his PM Kisan Yojana… the fact is he’s trying to mislead people with half-truth,” she said.
