BJP: Without central forces near booths, TMC will indulge in large-scale rigging

Talking about the BJP’s manifesto for the rural polls, Majumdar said, “If we get the majority, we will set up skill centers in different zila parishads to train people, so that they do not migrate to other states in search of jobs. We will also set up krishi kalyan kendras in different blocks for farmers.”

When asked to comment about the alliance between the Congress and the CPI(M), the BJP leader said, “Other Opposition parties like CPI(M) and Congress are also facing atrocities from the ruling party. Our ideological stand is different from that of CPI(M) and the Congress…However, there can be some local-level understanding in some pockets to defeat the TMC.”
Reacting to the BJP’s state chief’s comments, TMC MLA Tapas Roy said, “Their claims have no significance. They will not win zilla parishad seats as they do not have the support of the people. Every day, some leader or the other from the BJP is misleading the people.”
