NEW DELHI: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Trinamool Congress (TMC) on Thursday engaged in a war of words over Bengal and illegal Bangladeshis . The political storm erupted after TMC alleged BJP of "witch hunting" Bengalis in Delhi after branding them as "Bangladeshis."
The political slugfest between BJP and TMC begin over allegations that around 1,200 Bengali-speaking resident's in Delhi's Vasant-Kunj, reportedly from West Bengal's Cooch Behar, have been cut off from basic amenities and are being falsely branded as "Bangladeshis."
Taking to X, TMC launched a scathing attack on BJP, saying that its desperate pursuit of Bengal will always end in failure as PM Modi and Union home minister Amit Shah pretend to care about Bengal, but their party "harbours deep-rooted contempt for our people."
"This witch-hunt is being spearheaded by BJP's lumpen land mafia, backed by DDA and enabled by CM Rekh and protected by Delhi Police," TMC said further.
The party further took a cultural jab, saying, "That, right there, is why golgappa will never become phuchka. And BJP will NEVER win Bengal."
BJP calls it fake news
BJP IT cell chief Amit Malviya defended the action in Vasant Kunj, asserting that the action is being taken after a court order, claiming it a "fake news."
He further said that the "settlement in question is illegal, and the law is simply being enforced."
He further mentioned a recent crackdown in the area where 26 illegal Bangladeshis were apprehended. "It is no coincidence that just days ago, 26 illegal Bangladeshis were apprehended from this very area," he said.
Taking a jibe at Mamata Banerjee, he said that Bengal CM "equates genuine residents of West Bengal with illegal infiltrators."
"Bangladeshis who have flooded into India using fraudulent Aadhaar and ration cards, mostly issued in 24 North Parganas," he added.
"Stop insulting Bengal. Stop protecting illegality," he said.
