People will bulldoze BJP in a democratic manner, says Mamata Banerjee
West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee took a dig at the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Monday and said that they can bulldoze the people with their forceful misuse of power, but the people will bulldoze BJP in a democratic manner in the next election.
She was speaking at the fifth edition of the India Today Conclave East 2022 that began in Kolkata on Monday, July 4
“The people will be bulldozer for you [BJP]. You can bulldoze the people with your forceful misuse of power, you can bulldoze democracy. But in the next election it will be BJP vs people of the country and the people will bulldoze BJP in a democratic manner,” Mamata Banerjee said at the Conclave.
She also sought a reply to the BJP’s often-used barb of dynasty politics. “What is this dynasty that they [BJP] are talking about? After Sheikh Mujibur Rahman’s death, Sheikh Haseena took over the reins of Bangladesh. Who else could have done that,” she asked.
“They [Centre] only encourages BJP-minded people [to invest in India], no other people. Where they keep money and where they get money. That is the basic difference between us and them. Our interest is to build up industries, wherever there is a possibility,” the Bengal CM stated.
Furthermore, talking about the newly formed Maharashtra government, led by CM Eknath Shinde and Deputy CM Devendra Fadnavis, she said, “I believe this government will not continue. It’s an unethical, undemocratic government. They might have won the government, but they did not win the heart of Maharashtra.”
