West Bengal Assembly Elections: If BJP Comes to Power in West Bengal, Many People Will Become Homeless, Says Mamata Banerjee

KOLKATA: West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee said on Sunday that if the BJP comes to power in the upcoming elections, many people in the state could lose their homes and shelter.

Addressing an election rally in Khandaghosh in the former Burdwan district, Mamata Banerjee said, “In the coming days, people will have neither an address, nor a house, nor a family. The BJP will snatch everything.”

During the rally, she targeted Prime Minister Narendra Modi (without naming him directly). She said BJP leaders are promising to implement the 7th Pay Commission, but this is completely misleading.

The Chief Minister said, “They are lying. They should have checked the facts first. We had already announced the 7th Pay Commission in our state budget in February this year. West Bengal is the only state where government employees receive pensions, while other states do not have this facility.”
