Prime Minister Narendra Modi, on the 8th of February, criticised Mamata Banerjee, the Chief Minister of West Bengal.

PM Modi addressed a public rally in Jalpaiguri, West Bengal and said, “Didi is worried about moving to Delhi and she has left Bengal, the poor and middle class to be looted by the alliance of middlemen and syndicate.” He further said, “Today, the situation in West Bengal is such that Didi is the chief minister but someone else is doing ‘dadagiri’. The TMC is in power but administration is run by ‘jagaai and madhaai’ (a reference to middlemen.)”

The comments came after Mamata Banerjee announced a protest against the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI,) in Delhi. The CBI alleged Rajiv Kumar, the Kolkata Police Commissioner, of being involved in the Rose Valley and the Saradha Group chit fund scams.

However, the Supreme Court (SC) ordered Mr. Kumar to cooperate with the CBI in investigating the case. The SC also instructed the CBI not to take any violent action against Kumar.

During his speech at the rally, Mr. Modi said, “It is unprecedented that a chief minister sits on dharna to protect a person facing allegations of corruption.” In addition, he said, “This chowkidar will spare neither the perpetrators of chit fund scams nor those protecting them.”

Further in his speech, Mr. Modi compared the Trinamool Congress (TMC) to communists. He said, “The people of Bengal voted for Didi to get rid of the violence of the communists. But the new government is following the same model of violence against its opponents…TMC Government has become communist part two (sic.)”

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) organised several rallies in West Bengal, ahead of the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.

The Lok Sabha elections are scheduled between April and May 2019.
