BJP leader hits back at Mamata
West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee should be aware of the negative impacts of appeasing fundamentalists following the recent attacks of militants in Pakistan, BJP spokesperson M J Akbar said yesterday.
The remark came a few days after Mamata at a party meeting indicated that Indian intelligence agency RAW might be behind the Burdwan blast.
Two persons -- allegedly residents of Bangladesh -- were killed in an explosion on October 2 at a house in Burdwan, India while they were manufacturing improvised explosive devices meant to be transported to Bangladesh. "Mamata Banerjee's statement blaming RAW for the Burdwan blast is against national interest. She has no understanding of the country's national interest. She has no understanding about the brave work that national security agencies are doing to ensure the security of our country," Akbar, a veteran journalist, told PTI in Kolkata.
Mamata is encouraging fundamentalism and is only interested in politics of votes -- a dangerous trend both for Bengal and for India, Akbar said.
“Mamata Banerjee should understand the global phenomenon of this virulent form of terrorism. Pakistan is paying the price of appeasing fundamental elements, which were to be used against India and Afghanistan.”
