After Violence, Mudslinging in WB: BJP, TMC, CPI(M), Cong Weigh In

PM Modi, in a conversation with CNN-News18, slammed the West Bengal CM and her party for the violence on Tuesday.

Political leaders across the spectrum reacted strongly to the clashes between workers of the TMC and the BJP in Kolkata on Tuesday, 14 May, when Amit Shah held a roadshow in the state capital.

BJP President Amit Shah on Wednesday accused the Trinamool Congress (TMC) of indulging in violence in the state and alleged that the Election Commission has been a "mute spectator". Addressing a press conference, Shah also accused TMC "goons" of vandalising Vidyasagar's bust inside a college, saying it was done to gain "sympathy" as the Mamata Banerjee-led party had realised its "reverse count" has begun.

ईश्वर चंद्र विद्यासागर जी की प्रतीमा को TMC ने तोड़ा है।

जहाँ प्रतिमा रखी थी वो जगह कमरों के अंदर है। कॉलेज बंद हो चुका था, सब लॉक था, फिर कमरे किसने खोले?

अपनी गंदी राजनीति के लिए TMC ने महान शिक्षाशास्त्री की प्रतिमा का तोड़ा है।
