Home Minister Amit Shah is currently campaigning for the Bengal Assembly polls which are scheduled to begin from March 27. While addressing a rally, the leader first time responded to Trinamool Congress Supremo and chief minister Mamata Banerjee’s allegations of the attack that caused her injuries while she was filing papers elections in Nandigram. Shah said that political violence in the state is not unheard of and many BJP workers have been its victims.
“Mamata ji has a leg injury, it’s not known how she got it. Trinamool Congress calls it a conspiracy, but Elections Commission says it was an accident. Didi, you’re roaming around in a wheelchair, concerned about your leg, but not the pain of mothers of 130 workers who were killed,” Amit Shah said at a rally in Bankura.
“I pray you get well soon but it would be nice if you also thought about my workers who have died in the violence,” he add
Mamata Banerjee, who was discharged from hospital on Saturday, has been attending rallies while being wheelchair bound. She was admitted to a hospital last week on Thursday following an injury that she sustained while greeting people from SUV via which she was traveling. Before being take to a hospital in Kolkata, she had claimed that the attack was planned.
