They are crossing their limits to work in support of the incumbent government: Sambit Patra
Drawing a parallel between the volunteer system in Andhra Pradesh and a similar set-up put in place by West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, the BJP has alleged that the “unofficial system” is being used to coerce people into falling in line. BJP national spokesperson Sambit Patra, who addressed various meetings here on Wednesday as part of the campaign for the byelection to the Tirupati Lok Sabha constituency, accused the volunteers of crossing their limits to work in support of the incumbent government. “Today, the West Bengal Government is on its way out, and it will be the turn of Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy tomorrow. Anyone making a mockery of democracy cannot continue in power for long,” Mr. Sambit Partra said.More Related News
