Kolkata, 22/3: Blaming criminals allegedly affiliated to the ruling TMC in West Bengal for the deaths of at least eight people in a fire incident in Birbhum district, the BJP demanded a CBI probe into the matter on Tuesday and a delegation of its state leaders also met Union Home Minister Amit Shah, seeking his intervention.
Slamming the West Bengal government over the incident, BJP president J P Nadda, in a tweet, said, “Shocked by the death of 10 innocent persons in violence that took place at Rampurhat in Birbhum district of West Bengal. This incident proves that Mamata Banerjee government has no control over law and order. I condemn this incident in the strongest words and demand strict action against the culprits.”
Addressing a press conference here, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) spokesperson Gaurav Bhatia said it would be appropriate for Banerjee, the chief minister of West Bengal, to resign as her government is unable to protect citizens and has instead, allegedly extended patronage to criminals.
