CM Suvendu Adhikari distributes Chhath Puja materials to devotees at a programme at Howrah’s Kazipara on Thursday
Addressing a programme at Howrah’s Kazipara ahead of Chhath Puja , Adhikari said: “Atheist communists, who governed for 34 years, are experts in selling books. We also won from Rejinagar, where Muslims constitute 70 per cent of the population. We won the Nandigram bypoll with a huge margin.
Kolkata/Howrah: CM Suvendu Adhikari said on Thursday he would work to keep “atheist” communists” and “Jamaat” Trinamool away from people of Bengal permanently and ensure that “they are never able to raise their heads again”. Adhikari accused TMC of destroying Bengal’s tradition and heritage and said the “Mamata Banerjee govt branded people from Bihar, Gujarat, Maharashtra and Uttar Pradesh as outsiders and treated illegal immigrants from Bangladesh as sons-in-law with all facilities and hospitality”. But when you approach them to wear a tilak, they will turn their foreheads away. The CM will work to keep ‘atheist’ communists and ‘Jamaat’ Trinamool away from people of Bengal. They are with the govt.
Lashing out at TMC govt for attempting to create hurdles for Ram Navami processions and other Hindu religious celebrations, he said: “Today, there is no problem.
The CM slammed TMC for branding BJP a “party of non-Bengalis”, alleging that Trinamool had illegally transferred Rs 20,000-30,000 crore out of the country in the last 15 years. Later, at a programme at Raipur, Bankura, the CM said the Jangalmahal region had remained deprived under both the Left Front and TMC govts, promising a major push for development, environmental protection and industrialisation in the tribal-dominated region.
Adhikari slammed the previous govt for spending only Rs 6 crore through the Paschimanchal Unnayan Parishad during the last financial year.
“We will spend Rs 1,200 crore through the Parishad in the remaining eight months of the financial year,” he said.
