Riots won't be tolerated in Bengal: Mamata Banerjee

Sreerampur, Apr 24 (UNI) Trinamool Congress (TMC) supremo and Chief Minister of West Bengal Mamata Banerjee on Wednesday warned riots are not tolerated in Bengal.

Addressing a public meeting here in Hooghly district, Ms Banerjee said, " Bengal is not the place to do ‘danga’ (riots), and that nobody here likes to indulge in it. "

" I don’t support ‘danga’. Bangla is not the place to do ‘danga’. Neither Hindu nor Muslim, nobody would do ‘danga’, " the chief minister said.

She said, " The people are safe under the Trinamool Congress, people of every region and every religion. "

The TMC supremo alleged, " They promised to give Rs 15 lakh to every person. Leave alone giving money, through demonetisation, he took away whatever people had accumulated through hard work."

Banerjee said, " The real black money could not be recovered because it was sent away overseas and is now being used in elections. Properties, party offices have been constructed by them using this black money. "

She said , " ATM Scam, Rafale Scam – these will all come out in the open in due time. "

The chief minister alleged they have killed and terrorised the common people, Dalits, backwards castes, journalists. The goons of BJP take out processions with weapons in hand.

" If the BJP is so concerned about Hindus, why are they trying to drive away 22 lakh Hindus from Assam? " Banerjee asked.

She said, " Bengal never gave in to the BJP’s threats, I have accepted your challenge. I have belief in the people, no threat from any agency would deter me. "
