BJP shares old tweets where Rahul Gandhi attacked CM Mamata over same cheat fund scams

Sharing the tweets, the BJP attacked Rahul Gandhi and said he was suffering from ' Multiple Personality Disorder'.

Interestingly, it was Congress party which had filed a petition in the Supreme Court demanding an investigation into the chit fund scams.

"Diagnosed: Multiple Personality Disorder is characterized by atleast two distinct and enduring personality states - there is trouble remembering certain events, beyond ordinary forgetfulness. These states alternately show in person's behavior. Get well soon, Rahul ji," BJP tweeted.

Rahul Gandhi was among the top opposition leaders who extended their support to Banerjee since she started the dharna on Sunday night.

Rahul on Sunday night tweeted: "I spoke with Mamata Di tonight and told her we stand shoulder to shoulder with her. The happenings in Bengal are a part of the unrelenting attack on India’s institutions by Mr Modi & the BJP. The entire opposition will stand together & defeat these fascist forces."

However, West Bengal Congress leader and MP Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury supported the CBI move and slammed Mamata Banerjee.

In an apparent boost for the anti-Narendra Modi front, several opposition leaders, most of them who were seen at the Brigade rally on Jan 19, backed West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee's "sit-in" protest against the CBI's move to quiz Kolkata Police Commissioner Rajeev Kumar for allegedly tampering evidences of chit-fund scams.

The opposition leaders have ganged up against the BJP, which has been accused by Mamata of using federal probe agency to make political gains in West Bengal in the forthcoming General Elections.

Developments on Monday:

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Monday took their battle against the Trinamool Congress in West Bengal to the Election Commission highlighting how the Mamata Banerjee government in the eastern state is using its machinery to threaten the BJP workers and not allowing any electioneering by refusing permission to landing of helicopters of their leaders.

Briefing media, Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said "every worker of BJP is constantly being threatened." She said the Mamata government is using the civic volunteers in West Bengal to act like police and threaten.

"TMC is rattled by the growth of the BJP," she said.

"It is an irony that the Chief Minister herself said democracy is under threat when she is acting like this," said Sitharaman.

"We gave instance by instance account to the Election Commission and requested them to take action," said Sitharaman.

Meanwhile, the Supreme Court on Monday said it will hear tomorrow the CBI plea against the Mamata Banerjee government in West Bengal on non-cooperation with the federal agency to probe into the state's chit fun scams, which require the quizzing of Kolkata Police Commissioner Rajeev Kumar, media reports said.

While Mamata Banerjee began an indefinite dharna against the CBI move, the Supreme Court has asked the probe agency to produce evidence proving Kumar's alleged attempt to tamper evidences in the chit fund scams after Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, appearing for CBI, said that the Kolkata Police Commissioner was destroying evidence. 

Sitharaman said even the chopper of Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister, who is an elected CM of a state, was not allowed by Mamata.
