Alleging that more than 130 BJP workers were killed by the "Trinamool Congress (TMC) goons" in West Bengal, Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Thursday said that if the BJP is voted to power in the State, the "goons" would be tracked down and put behind bars.

"Mamata didi's TMC goons killed more than 130 BJP workers in Bengal. Mamata didi thinks that by murdering someone she can stop the BJP. I want to tell her when the BJP comes to power in Bengal, the goons hiding in your (Mamata Banerjee's) shelter will be thrown behind bars," said Shah.

Shah was addressing a gathering at a rally at Namkhana in South 24 Paraganas district where he flagged off the fifth and last leg of BJP's Parivartan Yatra in Bengal.

The Home Minister alleged that the "TMC goons" usurped the funds sent by the Centre following the cyclone Amphan. He said that if the BJP is voted to power in Bengal, the matter will be investigated and those involved in corruption will be put behind bars.

"The aid sent by the Centre after Amphan was usurped by the TMC goons. After the BJP comes to power in Bengal, a high level probe will be conducted and all those involved in corruption will be put behind bars," said Shah. He said that a task force would be set up to ensure people's safety during cyclones and natural disasters in the state.

Shah sarcastically referring to Mamata's nephew Abhishek Banerjee, further alleged that TMC is only concerned about "Bhatija Kalyan" (nephew's welfare).

Shah took dig at the Chief Minister for losing her cool following slogans of 'Jai Shree Ram' at an event in Kolkata.

"Didi gets angry with the slogan. She feels insulted. How can anyone be insulted with slogans of 'Jai Shree Ram? The 'Jai Shree Ram' slogan is a symbol of protest against appeasement," said Shah.

Alleging that the TMC leaders often threaten people during poll day, the BJP leader said that it will be ensured that not a single TMC "goon" be on the roads during the Assembly elections.
