Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s remarks come after the Supreme Court rapped the Mamata Banerjee government over the clash with the Enforcement Directorate (ED), which conducted raids at the Kolkata office of political consultancy firm I-PAC that works for the Trinamool Congress.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi targeted the Mamata Banerjee government in West Bengal and accused it of ‘misrule’ after the BJP-led Mahayuti registered a big win in the Maharashtra civic body elections. The PM said that the people of Bengal are fed up with the Trinamool’s governance and are ready to reject it in the upcoming state elections. “I’m looking forward to the opportunity to go to Malda and the surrounding areas to meet the people at the BJP rally tomorrow. Every day, new examples of the misrule by the Trinamool are coming to light. The people of West Bengal are fed up with the Trinamool’s governance and are ready to reject this government. The people want a development-oriented BJP government,” he said.
