Banerjee slammed the BJP government at the Centre over the CBI’s questioning of the wife of her nephew Abhishek Banerjee

Dubbing Prime Minister Narendra Modi as the “biggest riot monger” West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Wednesday said that he would meet a “worse fate” than former US President Donald Trump.

“Narendra Modi is the biggest riot monger in the country...He will meet a worse fate than former US President Donald Trump,” said Mamata. She was addressing a Trinamool Congress (TMC) in Hooghly district at the same venue where the Prime Minister addressed a public meeting two days back.

The TMC supremo said that Modi was talking too much asking him to wait till the Assembly elections were over and find out who is stronger between them.

“Narendra Modi ji and your demon friend; you are talking too much. Talk a bit more. I will tolerate for two months and then I will see who is stronger, strong not by muscle power but strong with the power of democracy,” said Mamata.

She slammed the BJP government at the Centre over the CBI’s move of questioning Rujira, the wife of her nephew and TMC MP Abhishek Banerjee in relation to a coal pilferage case and accused the saffron party of labeling a young woman as a coal thief.

“You enter my house and label a 22 -23 year old woman as a coal thief. But you are going around with coal thieves yourself,” said Mamata.

Accusing the saffron party of resorting to “political vendetta” the Chief Minister challenged it to get all TMC workers including her arrested. She further alleged that the BJP, CPI(M) and the Congress joined forces in Bengal.

Mamata said that there were “20 lakh TMC workers” in Bengal adding how many would the BJP be able to get arrested.

“Remember, a wounded tiger is more dangerous than a healthy tiger,” said Mamata.

Challenging the BJP, CPI(M) and Congress to “play the game” against her, Mamata said that the game would start soon and she will be goalkeeper.

“There will be one game in the 2021 Assembly elections. CPI(M), Congress and the BJP will be on one side and TMC on another. I will be the goalkeeper. Let’s see how many goals they can score. Rest assured they will not be able to score a single goal,” said Mamata.

Hurling the ‘outsider’ jibe at the BJP, Mamata said that “ Gujarat will not rule Bengal. Modi will not rule Bengal. Bengal will rule Bengal.”
