TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ With West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee backing Opposition presidential nominee Meira Kumar as a mark of protest against the Centre’s “atrocities”, the Bharatiya Janata Party today said the it does not expect support from parties who pursue communal politics.
BJP leader GVL Narsimha Rao said the Trinamool Congress, the Congress and the Rashtriya Janata Dal represent regressive politics today and have been perusing communal politics, vote-bank politics and they do not represent the kind of politics that the BJP is perusing that is “sabka saath, sabka vikas”.
“So at another level, the opposition is more like a corrupt alliance of different desperate parties. TMC, RJD, Congress, they are all facing serious charges of corruption. So, obviously we do not expect her (Mamata) to vote for the NDA candidate because we represent positive politics, we represent secular and non-discriminatory administrative regime, positive agenda and honest government,” he added.
Another BJP leader Rahul Sinha blamed Mamata of practising “politics of appeasement” and said she has no right to talk about the Centre when her own state is burning of communal violence. “She herself is not able to control the law and order situation in the state and she is blaming the Centre. All the anti-social elements are in the TMC. Because of Mamata the hills are burning, it was because of her that in 7 months there were 14 cases of riots,” he added.
