TIL Desk/National/Siliguri/ Launching a fresh tirade against Prime Minister Narendra Modi, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Sunday said he was “peddling lies to mislead the voters” in the poll-bound state.
Banerjee, addressing a rally in Siliguri following her protest march over LPG price hike, said the prime minister made many “empty” promises over the years, and people no longer trust him. She sought to know “why the PM has not yet deposited Rs 15 lakh in the bank accounts of every citizen, as promised by him before 2014 Lok Sabha polls”.
“You have made many empty promises. People will not accept your falsehood every day. We demand you make LPG cylinder affordable to every citizen of the country. You have made LPG cylinders inaccessible for the common man,” Banerjee said in her address.
