WB Leader of Opposition Suvendu Adhikari Calls on Union Home Minister Amit Shah
GG News Bureau
New Delhi, 2nd August. West Bengal Opposition Leader Suvendu Adhikari met Union Home Minister Amit Shah in Parliament on Tuesday.
After the raids, the Mamata Banerjee government was compelled to replace Chatterjee in her cabinet with new faces. In the meantime, the BJP stepped up its criticism of the state government. Sukanta Majumdar, the MP and leader of the West Bengal BJP, intended to meet with Home Minister Shah as well.
“There is something very important to intimate Amit Shah Ji about Bengal especially after the SSC scam that was recently busted. The Bengal people’s mindset has completely changed after the scam came to light. They have begun to believe that the Mamata Banerjee government has become completely corrupt and the government has no moral right to continue ruling,” Majumdar stated.
When asked about the meeting’s time, the West Bengal BJP chief said it would be decided keeping Shri Shah’s busy schedule.
“He gives more importance to Bengal. Whenever MPs of Bengal go to him, he meets them. It is his love for Bengal. If we get the time, it will be great for us,” he said.
Meanwhile, the Trinamool Congress tried to retaliate against the BJP. It questioned why the Enforcement Directorate (ED) remained silent on the recovery of large amounts of unaccounted cash from the vehicle of Jharkhand Congress lawmakers.
The Congress and other opposition parties have claimed that the BJP is trying to destabilise Jharkhand’s JMM-Congress government.
The TMC also demanded that the role of West Bengal Assembly Leader of the Opposition Suvendu Adhikari be investigated in light of the money’s recovery, citing his recent remark that “after Maharashtra, it will be Jharkhand, Rajasthan, and West Bengal.”
The West Bengal Police, acting on a tip, stopped an SUV carrying Congress MLAs from Jharkhand in Howrah on Saturday evening and allegedly found nearly half a crore rupees inside. They were formally arrested on Sunday afternoon after being questioned.
The SUV carrying MLAs Irfan Ansari, Rajesh Kachchap, and Naman Bixal Kongari was stopped on National Highway-16 in the Panchla police station area.
The ruling Trinamool Congress referred to “murmurs of horse-trading and the possible overthrow of the Jharkhand government” in a tweet. Mamata Banerjee, the Chief Minister and leader of the Trinamool Congress, recently accused the BJP of attempting to force a change of government in Jharkhand following the recent change in Maharashtra.
Responding to the allegations made by Congress against the BJP, Union Minister Arjun Munda on Sunday said leaders of the Congress make allegations to hide their corrupt practises.
