West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee attacked the BJP, saying the “saffron party divides people on religious lines.” She said the “BJP is a party of rioters.” While addressing a public meeting, Mamata said, “ BJP drives wedges between people. They make Bengalis fight each other. They divide Hindus and Muslims, mothers and daughters. They incite riots between sikhs and Christian.” Verbal spat between the top leadership of BJP and TMC got vigorous during poll campaigns and they targeted each other in their speeches.
