In Narayan Rane's Counter To Shiv Sena, A Dig At Mamata Banerjee

Union Minister Narayan Rane responded to Sanjay Raut's "West Bengal is the lion of the country" remark today.

Narayan Rane's fresh swipe against Shiv Sena has resulted in West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee getting caught up in the crosshairs with the Union Minister on Friday stating that the "distance between Konkan and Kashmir represents the difference between Banerjee becoming the country's Prime Minister." Addressing reporters after resuming his ''Jan Ashirwad Yatra'' on Friday, the Union Minister was responding to Sanjay Raut's "West Bengal is the lion of the country" remark stating that the Shiv Sena leader "speaks without any sense." "Sanjay Raut speaks without any sense. Vinayak and Sanjay Raut will lead to the fall of Shiv Sena... The distance between Konkan and Kashmir represents the difference between Mamata Banerjee and her becoming the PM," he said. This is not the first time when Mr Rane has taken a jibe at the political situation in West Bengal.
