The ruling BJP on Thursday castigated the opposition CPI-M and alleged that the party leaders are indulged in provoking minorities in the poll bound constituencies of Boxanagar and Dhanpur in the run up of the bye-elections.
Addressing a press conference here at the party headquarter on Thursday, the BJP spokesperson Nabendu Bhattacharjee said, “The CPI-M is hatching communalism to provoke minorities and create unrest in the poll-bound assembly constituencies.”
“The CPI-M is trying to create unrest in Sonamura subdivision by their addresses to the poll campaigns,” he alleged, adding that there is a need of intervention of the election commission to stop such provocation which may lead to any untoward incidents in the run up of the bye-elections.
He said, “The CPI-M leader Jiten Choudhury like leaders had failed to describe their failure of bringing development in Boxanagar and Dhanpur, in their addresses to the poll campaign. Jitendra Choudhury was found seeking votes for movement and he never mentioned any developmental works.”
“In one of his addresses, Jitendra Choudhury clearly said that if they are voted to power in Boxanagar and Dhanpur, they may not be able to work for development, but then they will work with the people to intensify their movement,” Bhattacharjee told reporters.
“The way people of this state are eagerly approaching forward to join the BJP, it clearly signifies that they have lost their trust on the CPI-M,” he said, adding that the CPI-M will be defeated in the upcoming bye-elections.
