Aside from the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA), Abhishek Banerjee also criticised the BJP for supposedly halting federal funding to the state.The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) was criticised by Trinamool Congress (TMC) MP Abhishek Banerjee on Wednesday for their “Modi ki guarantee” election platform. He claimed that although West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee’s guarantee offered a lifetime warranty, Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s guarantee came with “zero warranty.”He was speaking from North 24 Parganas’ Basirhat at a political gathering. Following the unrest in Sandeshkhali last month, this was TMC’s first significant gathering in Basirhat.
In response to the month-long upheaval in Sandeshkhali, Abhishek also criticised the BJP, claiming that too much politics has revolved around Sandeshkhali and Basirhat.
The goal of the BJP was not to protect women. They wanted to deceive the public and undermine the TMC,” he declared.Last month, charges of sexual assault and land grabbing against Shahjahan and his friends Sardar and Hazra by village women put Sandeshkhali in North 24 Parganas on edge.
Abhishek, the nephew of Mamata Banerjee, the head of the party, also took aim at the BJP for the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and for supposedly halting the flow of federal funding to the state. Additionally, he declared that West Bengal will never be able to establish the National Register of Citizens (NRC) due to TMC opposition.”Let Union Home Minister Amit Shah make it clear that the CAA will not be followed by the National Register of Citizens (NRC). The chief minister of Assam did nothing when you (the BJP) stole the citizenship of 1.2 million Hindus there, according to Abhishek, the national general secretary of the party.
He went on to state that the federal agencies have not yet taken into custody Shibaprasad Hazra and Uttam Sardar, the two accused and associates of TMC strongman Sheikh Shahjahan, who was detained, for alleged sexual assault.
