TIL Desk/National/Kolkata/ Information and Broadcasting Minister Smriti Irani has accused the West Bengal government of “completely failing” to maintain law and order situation in the state and said the state BJP has the full backing of the party’s central leadership.
Irani said the reports of widespread pre-poll violence in Bengal over the filing of nomination for rural elections next month and the death of one of their activists “speaks volumes” about the ruling Trinamool Congress’s inactivity upholding the democracy.
“The death of Ajit Murmu speaks volumes about the law and order situation in West Bengal. It proves how the Trinamool Congress government is failing in the state and democracy is being murdered. When a political candidate is not able file his or her nomination peacefully it is evident what the law and order situation is like,” said Irani, who was in the city on the occasion of BJP’s 38th Foundation Day.
