Mamata visits panchayat violence injured victims at SSKM; accuses BJP of instigating violence

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee today visited the SSKM Hospital to meet those injured in the recent violence that erupted during the Panchayat elections. While extending financial assistance to the victims, she expressed her views on the prevailing situation.

During her visit, Mamata Banerjee made strong statements, alleging that the BJP's victory in Nandigram has led to the targeted persecution of Trinamool supporters in the region. She condemned the violence and expressed solidarity with those who suffered during the electoral clashes.

Taking a dig at the BJP's claims of toppling the Bengal government in a short span, the Chief Minister asserted that those who make such boasts cannot even accomplish simple tasks like toppling a bucket. This remark was made in response to the BJP's frequent assertions about taking over the state's administration.

Additionally, Mamata Banerjee asserted that the recently concluded opposition meeting in Bengaluru has rattled the BJP, as they fear an inevitable defeat. She exuded confidence in her party's prospects and the united opposition's ability to challenge the ruling party effectively in the upcoming elections.
