New Delhi: Raising the poll pitch in poll-bound Bengal, Home Minister Amit Shah reiterated party’s claims of turning the state into Sonar Bangla, if BJP is voted to power.
Home Minister referred to the large crowd at the public rally and said that “the huge turnout in a small town was itself an indication that the people of the state were seeking change.
“In Bengal, the BJP will win at least 200 seats and form a government,” added the Home minister.
Touching upon the issue of Mamata’s leg injury in Nandigram and allegations of BJP hand in it, the Home Minister demanded that “Mamata Banerjee should first make her medical report public.”
Amit Shah said this while speaking to a TV channel.
‘TMC swindled Rs 10,000 crore Cylcone Amphan relief fund’
Amit Shah slammed Mamata Banerjee government in West Bengal for allegedly “swindling” the money sent for cyclone Amphan relief in the Sunderbans region.
Criticising the TMC’s “cut money” culture, Shah claimed that “Bhatija (nephew) and company swindled central funds sent for Amphan relief”.
If voted to power, Shah said the BJP would constitute a committee to probe the alleged siphoning off relief funds.
“The central government had sent relief funds for the affected people. But the TMC leaders siphoned off the funds and did not allow it to reach them.
