The BJP Saturday said West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee is opposed to the special intensive revision (SIR) of the electoral rolls and engaging in politics of appeasement as she senses imminent defeat of the TMC in Assembly polls next year.
BJP national spokesperson Gaurav Bhatia also condemned DMK leader Udhayanidhi Stalin remarks which “insulted Hindutva and Sanskrit”.
Bhatia said Banerjee is “scared” of ongoing SIR because it will expose the “infiltrators” that ruling TMC has “nurtured” as its vote bank in the state.
“At the behest of Mamata Banerjee, her party leader Humayun Kabir talks about constructing Babri Masjid on December 6… It’s now clear how Mamata Banerjee is pursuing appeasement politics by adopting an anti-Hindu stance.”
On Udhayanidhi Stalin, Bhatia said, “Udhaynidhi Stalin is continuously becoming a symbol of anarchy and division. By calling Hindutva and Hindus a disease like dengue-malaria, he has already exposed his mindset. Now, by calling Sanskrit a ‘dead language’, he has once again struck at our cultural heritage…”
