Mamata Banerjee-led government will fall on its own: BJP

New Delhi : Bharatiya Janata Party on Tuesday upped the ante against West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and claimed that the Trinamool Congress (TMC) will collapse on its own.

While interacting with the media, BJP National General Secretary Kailash Vijayvargiya said, “I don’t think Mamata ji will go on till 2021, saying anything now would be premature, we are preparing for 2021 but this government will fall on its own.”

Tagging Mamata Banerjee as ‘an arrogant administrator’, the BJP leader said that the TMC lost its golden opportunity to serve the people of Bengal, despite being voted to power for two consecutive terms.

Referring to the Lok Sabha Election 2019 results in which the BJP bagged 18 out of 42 Lok Sabha seats in Bengal and the TMC could manage to win only 22, Vijayvargiya said, “We have won hearts and blessings of masses. In victory, we should be more humble and grounded. We should not be arrogant. The masses are watching us. The people of Bengal have ensured our victory that means they have given us added responsibilities.”

“The victory we have achieved this time in Bengal is the penultimate step, the final step would be when we win the assembly elections In Bengal,” he said, contending that arrogance has led to the TMC’s doomsday in Bengal.
