New Delhi, February 4: BJP MP Soumitra Khan has labeled West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee as the “biggest drama queen.” He criticized the TMC government, claiming it has completely ruined the state.
In response to the Supreme Court hearing regarding the Special Investigation Report (SIR) and allegations made by Banerjee, Khan questioned how deceased individuals could still appear on the voter list. “Mamata Banerjee wants their names to remain on the list. This is the biggest farce. If we need a drama actress, we should bring in Mamata. She has devastated Bengal,” he stated.
Khan alleged that Banerjee did not stand up for teachers who lost their jobs but is now fighting to grant Indian citizenship to Rohingyas and Bangladeshis. “She has been performing drama in the Supreme Court as well. The people of Bengal are against her. She should focus on border fencing instead of trying to make Bangladeshis voters in India. Her visit to Delhi is merely for show, attempting to fool the public. The drama continues in the High Court and the Supreme Court,” he added.
BJP MP Praveen Khandelwal remarked that Banerjee’s accusations lack factual basis. He emphasized that the SIR falls under the jurisdiction of the Election Commission. “Why is Mamata Banerjee fighting for those who are not eligible to vote? The TMC has encouraged infiltration in Bengal. The SIR is exposing all of this, which is why she is acting out,” he said.
Khandelwal also congratulated the new government in Manipur, stating that under Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership, the state will progress rapidly.
Regarding the recent central budget, he noted that it considers all sections of society. “Our farmers are the backbone of the nation, and their concerns have been addressed in the budget. Women, youth, and small traders have also been taken into account. It is an excellent budget,” he remarked.
Khandelwal criticized Congress for attacking democracy and breaking the decorum of the House. “It is disheartening to hear the Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge speak of decorum,” he concluded.
