NDTV
On Tuesday, West Bengal's ruling Trinamool gained control of the 144-member Kolkata Municipal Corporation, clinching 134 seats, in an emphatic endorsement for the party seven months after its landslide win in the state assembly polls.
A day after his party's dismal performance in the KMC polls, veteran BJP leader Tathagata Roy slammed the state leadership, saying the party is being run by a bunch of "rotten debauch-cum-traitors”. Hindu Bengalis seem headed for doom and extinction. Their principal abode,the state of West Bengal,has been a Kakistocracy*,ruled by a bunch of soul-destroyers for the last 44 years.*Government by the worst persons; a form of government in which the worst persons are in power.
On Tuesday, West Bengal's ruling Trinamool gained control of the 144-member Kolkata Municipal Corporation, clinching 134 seats, in an emphatic endorsement for the party seven months after its landslide win in the state assembly polls.
The BJP, which lost much of its steam after the assembly poll defeat, managed to win just three wards, the Congress and the CPI (M)-led Left Front two, and Independents three.
"Hindu Bengalis seem headed for doom and extinction. Their principal abode, the state of West Bengal, has been a Kakistocracy*, ruled by a bunch of soul-destroyers for the last 44 years. *Government by the worst persons; a form of government in which the worst persons are in power*," Mr Roy, a former governor of Tripura and Meghalaya, tweeted.
