Mamata Banerjee has criticized some party leaders as opportunists as elections approach
Calcutta:
In her first campaign in North Bengal ahead of next year’s assembly elections, Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee today made a rare reference to Trinamool Congress leaders who appear to rebel against the party, attacking them for profit. of the party’s success, but not being loyal. .
His attack on the alleged rebels comes on a day when his former minister Suvendu Adhikari attacked the Trinamool Congress, without naming a party, for nepotism and his “outsider” campaign against the BJP.
Adhikari, an MLA from the Nandigram Trinamool Congress, resigned as minister on November 27. An official confirmation is expected, but he can join the BJP later this week, coinciding with Interior Minister Amit Shah’s visit to West Bengal.
“We will support the people and fight with them. That is our promise. Who is greater than who in the party should not be the problem. After profiting from the party for 10 years, after profiting from being part of the government, rubbing shoulders with this and that party … I will not tolerate those people, “Ms Banerjee said today.
“Workers who are with the party 365 days will have to give the test. If you have made mistakes, rectify yourself. Old and new workers must work together. Don’t worry about who is bigger, A or B or C. When there is war, the only dream is to win the war. The only objective is to expel the BJP from Bengal, “said Ms Banerjee.
Adhikari said they need to bring back to West Bengal what the Constitution says: “for the people, by the people and by the people.”
“Why will it be because of the party, the party and the party here? I don’t believe in personal attacks. A lot of people are abusing me. Some people are attacking me from high positions. But in a few days, knowing when people go to vote, “Adhikari said.
