Sharpening his attack on Trinamool Congress chief and West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee ahead of the Assembly elections, Union Home Minister and senior BJP leader Amit Shah on Sunday accused her government of working for “bhatija kalyan” (welfare of the nephew) and said a spate of desertions in her party suggested that she will be left alone by the end of the polls.
In his virtual address during a BJP rally at the Domjur stadium in Howrah, Shah said, “ Modi government is working towards ‘jan kalyan’ (welfare of the people), and the Mamata Banerjee government is working towards ‘bhatija kalyan’ (welfare of the nephew) in Bengal.” He was referring to Banerjee’s nephew and Diamond Harbour MP Five Abhishek Banerjee.
TMC leaders, including former minister Rajib Banerjee, had joined the BJP in Delhi on Saturday. They were present at the rally on Sunday.
