Murshidabad violence planned by BJP: CM
Terming Prime Minister Narendra Modi as a 'great liar', Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee today said that the violence at Rezinagar in Murshidabad on Wednesday was preplanned by the BJP.
West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Thursday accused the Union government of “deploying the army” along two highway toll plazas while keeping the state government “in the dark”.
Banerjee, also chief of the ruling Trinamool Congress, said the state chief secretary was writing to the central government and she will approach President Pranab Mukherjee to seek clarification over the alleged deployment of the army at the Dankuni and Palsit toll plazas on National Highway 2 (connecting Delhi and Kolkata).
“Army has been deployed in the state without informing the state government. This is unacceptable. We do not know anything about it. It has never happened,” she said.
“We want details. Federal structure has been disrupted and democracy twisted. Has Emergency been declared? We had no information,” she added.
