Blaming the BJP led government at the Centre for the current political crisis in Uddhav Thackeray led Maharastra government, West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee on Thursday claimed that the BJP was in a toppling game after sensing defeat in the presidential poll next month.
Citing the current state of affairs in Maharastra, Banerjee opined that the democracy was being bulldozed and blamed the BJP for the present situation in the Western part of the country.
“In India, I am in doubt if any democracy works here! Where is democracy? If they bulldoze a democratic government! We want justice for people, for Uddhav Thackeray. After Maharashtra,
they will topple the other government,” Banerjee told a media conference.
Banerjee, who is also the chairperson of Trinamool Congress, claimed that the MLAs were being bought through hawala money.
She also claimed that for the Presidential election (July 18) BJP may not have enough numbers to win the elections and for that it was trying to topple an elected government in Maharastra in an unethical, unconstitutional manner.
“From my party, 200 people have been given notice by CBI and ED, but for BJP nothing happens. There is no limit to their money, is it not hawala? Is it not a scam that one ruling party is buying MLAs?” asked Banerjee.
She also asked the BJP to send the MLAs to Bengal instead, where they will be extended good hospitality.
” Why are you disturbing the Assam government when they are facing floods? Send them (the
MLAs) to Bengal and we will extend good hospitality and take care of democracy, too,” she maintained.
The TMC supremo alleged that in the Tripura bypolls the people could not cast their votes freely.
