KOLKATA, 26 SEP: Trinamul Congress chief Mamata Banerjee and the party’s national general secretary Abhishek Banerjee today gave a clarion call to dislodge ‘autocratic’ BJP government from Centre in 2024.
Mamata Banerjee who was campaigning for her Bhawanipore by-poll said her victory in Bhawanipore would be a stepping stone for greater movement to dislodge BJP from Centre.
She said, “I don’t support bandh (strike) but I have full support for farmers’ movement. I went for 26 days hunger strike against Left Front government demanding no forceful acquisition of farm land.”
Miss Banerjee said her party both in Rajya Sabha and Lok Sabha opposes tooth and nail against Draconian Farm Laws and supported farmers’ movement.
“I’ve sent my MPs to extend our support and even spoke to them over phone. I met Kisan Union president Rakesh Tikait at Nabanna. If they ask me I will visit Punjab, Haryana and Chandrigarh,” Miss Banerjee said.
Trinamul’s national general secretary Abhishek Banerjee today said, “I’ve visited Tripura twice and our party units are being set up, so they now imposed section 144. BJP cannot stop me from visiting BJP-run states like UP, MP, Haryana, and Tripura. I will visit these states and explain the development made by her in West Bengal.
Miss Banerjee also lashed at the Centre for not allowing her to attend the world’s peace conference in Rome.
She was supposed to leave on 6 October for Rome but Ministry of External Affairs has declined to grant her permission to travel to Rome. She said, “I respect External Affairs Ministry so I sought their permission but it’s sheer meanness that they did not allow me to participate.
But I will participate from here and talk of universal brotherhood, communal harmony and peace.
She was earlier not granted permission by External Affairs Ministry to attend 126 years celebration of International Brotherhood World Parliament of Religions in Chicago to pay homage to Swami Vivekananda.
Even last year, she was supposed to deliver virtually a lecture from Kolkata to Oxford University but at the last minute the authorities regretted. They also stalled her visit to China. “But how many times you will stop me? To UNESCO to World Peace Conference, I’m invited,” she said.
She also asked if the Prime Minister could travel to USA why without citing any reason, the External Affairs Ministry has declined permission to her.
She said when Chief Minister’s relief fund is audited why nwabt to know of PM Cares Fund? Where does the money go, we all want to know.
Both Mamata Banerjee and Àbhishek Banerjee slammed Biplab Deb for hid audacious remarks against court and this is sheer dishonour and mockery to democracy and court.
She said during her election meeting that Bhawanipore represents mini India. She said Bhawanipore starts with B similarly Bharat Varsha too starts with B.
She said her movement against the ‘autocratic Facist’ government at the centre will begin from here
She appealed to the voter to cast vote for Trinamul Congress otherwise she won’t become the chief minister.”My party is in power with two-third majority and if I’m elected as chief minister you (read residents of Bhwanipore) will live
in peace and prosperity and get benefits of state government development progress.
‘ During 2021 Assembly poll, the Central leaders came to West Bengal like daily passengers but people of Bengal are with us and helped us to win the election.”
