Union Home Minister Amit Shah on May 10 asserted that the Trinamool Congress stood for “tushtikaran (appeasement), mafia and corruption” while criticising West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee for “remaining silent” on the Sandeshkhali issue.
Addressing back-to-back rallies in Ranaghat and Birbhum Lok Sabha constituencies, Mr. Shah alleged that women of Sandeshkhali were “tortured on the basis of religion”, and mocked TMC's slogan ‘Maa Mati Manush’, saying it has now transformed into "mullah madrassa mafia" owing to the politics of appeasement.
Mr. Shah also accused Ms. Banerjee of "misleading" people on the Citizenship (Amendment) Act, and slammed the TMC dispensation over corruption-related issues in the State.
