Mamata Banerjee: BJP and TMC have come face to face over the violence during the Ram Navami procession in Murshidabad, West Bengal. Mamta Banerjee has described this incident as pre-planned. Mamata Banerjee accused BJP of plotting violence in Bengal. Mamta said who asked you to carry a sword in the Ram Navami procession? Why did you remove the DIG a day before Ram Navami? So you commit violence.
He said in Raiganj that Yogi Adityanath is coming to Bengal to deliver a speech. I want to tell them that they should take care of their state first. How dare BJP threaten to close our Lakshmi Bhandar scheme. We worship Maa Durga. We celebrate Eid and also attend Iftar. I also attend Christmas at church. We all live together. We have learned this since childhood.
BJP has hit back at Mamata Banerjee's allegations.
On Ram Navami violence in Bengal, senior BJP leader Ravi Shankar Prasad said that the public is not with Mamata Banerjee. Mamta was provoking people. We heard Mamta's speech. Why does this happen only in Bengal?
On Mamata Banerjee's allegations that the Murshidabad incident was pre-planned, West Bengal BJP President Sukanta Majumdar said that the attack took place from the TMC office. Mamta is provoking people in the name of Ram. There is a plan to make them happy. There should be an NIA investigation into the attack on Ram Navami rally.
BJP MP from West Bengal Dilip Ghosh also said that Muslims do not want violence. They want to become partners in development with Modi but Mamata Banerjee did this by bringing in some hired people from outside.
