Mamata Banerjee synonymous to intolerance: Nadda

Kolkata, Dec 9 : Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) national President J.P. Nadda on Wednesday hit out at West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, terming her of being synonymous to ‘intolerance’.
“Intolerance is increasing in Bengal. For West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee….the name is intolerance,” said the BJP chief at a rally in Kolkata. He said that the BJP will come to power with more than 200 seats and will form the next government in Bengal.
Attacking the state’s ruling Trinamool Congress for encouraging dynasty politics, Nadda said that Trinamool Congress has become a family party.
“But for the BJP, the party is a family. It’s our ideology that the party office is where the family works and it’s not a leader’s house,” he said. He also blamed the state government for its minority appeasement.
“She allows Eid. The lockdown was withdrawn for Bakra-Eid on July 31. This shows that the state government’s policies are driven by appeasement theories. We are for Eid celebrations and we have no problem with that. But why did she impose lockdown on Ram Mandir foundation day,” Nadda asked.
The BJP chief inaugurated nine BJP party offices and also participated in a community outreach programme on BJP’s mission of ‘Ar Noi Anyay’ (no more atrocities) in Mamata Banerjee’s assembly constituency Bhabanipur.
