JP Nadda contended that the TMC supremo's "anxiety has grown manifold", after having seen the support that is pouring in for the BJP, and the ruling party, for that reason, has "resorted to attacks on saffron party men".
BJP president JP Nadda today slammed Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee for her persistent attacks on the centre over the prevailing COVID-19 situation and sought to know why she chose to skip a virtual meeting where Prime Minister Narendra Modi discussed ways to combat the disease. He contended that the Trinamool supremo's "anxiety has grown manifold", after having seen the support that is pouring in for the BJP, and the ruling party, for that reason, has "resorted to attacks on saffron party men". Addressing a virtual meeting from Delhi in support of BJP candidate from Malda's Manikchak seat, where polling is scheduled to be held on April 29, JP Nadda said, "Why didn't you (Mamata Banerjee) attend meetings convened by the prime minister on COVID-19, is it because of your huge ego?" PM Modi has also accused Mamata Banerjee of not attending meetings called by the centre on various issues, including the Covid-19 management. Mamata Banerjee, on the other hand, has claimed that she was not invited to a meeting chaired by the PM a few days ago to discuss modalities to tackle the pandemic.More Related News
