TIL Desk/National/Kolkata/ Alleging that Prime Minister Narendra Modi was “compelling” his officers to send notices for “humiliating opposition political leaders”, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Friday said she had no problem if the authorities choose to arrest her.
“I have opposed the (interim) Budget. I have said a few words before you. For this if they arrested me also, I don’t have a problem,” Ms Banerjee told the media. Ms Banerjee hastened to add: “My Hindi is not good. I said they may do it because this is their habit”. The Trinamool Congress supremo, however, said she was not blaming officials.
“I don’t blame the officers, because they are compelled to do that. I am told that Narendra Modi ji summons officers to his residence. He then tells them do something, do something to bring down the Opposition in the eyes of the people,” she said. Ms Banerjee said she was waiting for the day when even the person who cooks her food would be questioned by government agencies.
