<p>West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Sunday termed the BJP as a "jumla (rhetoric) party" and asserted that she would defeat the saffron camp across the country in the days to come.</p>.<p>Addressing a public meeting, Banerjee, who is the Trinamool Congress candidate for the September 30 Bhabanipur by-poll, criticised the Centre for not allowing her to attend a global peace meet in Rome and claimed that such attempts by the BJP will not succeed in stopping her.</p>.<p>Echoing her, the TMC national general secretary Abhishek Banerjee said the party will no longer be limited to Bengal and is politically ready to take on the BJP at the pan-India level.</p>.<p>"The BJP is the biggest jumla party in the country. It has only lies and hatred to offer. If you speak against them, they will unleash central agencies against you. They (BJP) are the party of a dancing dragon, who will remove your name from the list of citizenship in the name of CAA, NRC and NPR," she said.</p>.<p>The TMC supremo also accused the saffron camp of bringing in outsiders to create disturbances during the by-poll.</p>.<p>"The BJP thinks it can do whatever it wants just because it is in power. It doesn't follow human rights and democratic rights in the states where it is in power -- Uttar Pradesh, Assam, or Tripura. So many people died due to Covid in Uttar Pradesh. They did not allow cremation of those bodies and threw them in the Ganga. Human rights are violated in these states regularly, but Human Rights Commission won't visit these states," she said.</p>.<p><strong>Read | <a href="https://www.deccanherald.com/national/east-and-northeast/bhabanipur-bypoll-cpim-police-scuffle-after-campaigning-stopped-near-mamatas-house-1034412.html" target="_blank">CPI(M), cops clash over campaigning near Didi's house</a></strong></p>.<p>"In the days to come, we would take on the BJP at the national level and defeat them," Banerjee said.
