Referring to West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee’s recent remarks directed at the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), CPI(M) State Secretary Mohd. Salim on Tuesday launched a scathing attack on Ms. Banerjee and accused her Trinamool Congress of being a “springboard for the RSS and the BJP”.
Addressing a huge gathering organised by the student and youth wing of the CPI(M) in Kolkata, Mr. Salim said that by wearing a hijab and participating in Iftar parties, Ms. Banerjee had brought RSS/BJP to the State.
“She is saying that she believes that everyone in RSS is not bad,” the CPI(M) leader said, adding that that the Trinamool Congress had taken the ‘sub-contract’ for bringing the BJP/ RSS to the State.
