BJP Member of Parliament Biplab Kumar Deb criticised West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Thursday, accusing her of disregarding the Supreme Court, High Court, and law and order in relation to the Malda hostage crisis.
Deb described the incident as “very unfortunate” and attributed it to provocation by the Trinamool Congress (TMC). He stated, “They don’t understand the Supreme Court, nor the High Court, nor law and order, nor the dignity of the Chief Minister… The Election Commission is an independent body; it works as it deems fit, but I’m glad that Mamata Banerjee has now understood what the Model Code of Conduct is. The incident that happened in Malda is very unfortunate, and it happened due to their provocation. The Muslims of Bengal should decide that they will not vote for Mamata Banerjee, TMC.”
