'Come without CISF, you won’t return': TMC MP Kalyan Banerjee threatens BJP's Suvendu Adhikari, Sukanta Majumdar over Bengal SIR

Amid row over the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in West Bengal, TMC MP Kalyan Banerjee has now openly threatened BJP leaders Suvendu Adhikari and Sukanta Majumdar.

Talking to media persons, Banerjee asked the leaders to come to Dankuni without CISF security, saying they "would not return" once they arrive.

"You (Suvendu and Sukanta) come to Dankuni without CISF. You come with your men, and we will come with our men. We will see how big a 'baper beta' (son of his father) you are. You won't return from here," Banerjee is heard saying in the video.

In October, Sukanta Majumdar and Kalyan Banerjee exchanged scathing barbs over SIR.

Majumdar threatened to use central forces and said even firing could take place if there was any discontent about the SIR exercise, which sparked the verbal altercation.

His comments drew an angry reaction from Banerjee, who accused Majumdar of threatening Bengal's electorate and challenged him to visit his constituency.

"Let the Election Commission remove just one voter and see what happens. We will bring everything to a standstill," Banerjee said.

"That boy who became a minister, please tell him CISF bullets will hit them. Come to Sreerampur if you have the courage. Let's see how you go back home," Banerjee said.

Majumdar, in a sharp counterattack, said Banerjee's comments reflected "a loss of mental stability and political decency".

"A sitting MP is threatening to shoot a Union minister; this shows his mental state. They have crossed the age for active politics and should be sent to old-age homes," Majumdar told reporters in Balurghat.

"He talks like a child, without realising what he is saying. I am accepting his challenge. I am going to Sreerampur tomorrow. Let's see how big a 'baper beta' (son of his father) he really is," the BJP leader added.
