Hung out to dry by BJP, Dilip Ghosh attacks Mamata alleging free hand to 'Deshdrohis'

West Bengal BJP President and MP Dilip Ghosh attacked West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on allegations that CM allows 'Deshdrohis' to run wild in Bengal on Tuesday. At a 'Chai peh Charcha' event at Kharagpur in Bengal, MP alleged that Mamata Banerjee does t take miscreants who resort to vandalism of public property to task. 

"All Deshdrohis come here in Bengal and shout Azi slogans. y shout 'Pakistan Zindaba.' y vandalise public property, state government does thing. If government here does thing and stands watching, it can mean that CM is indirectly supporting se people. entire country is at peace why everything happens here?", said Bengal BJP President. 

Controversy over Ghosh's comment

Dilip Ghosh’s comment on Sunday that “Anti-CAA protesters were shot like dogs in BJP-ruled states” turned into a major controversy and put his own party in an awkward position.

"Didi’s police didn’t take action against those who destroyed public property as y are her voters. Our governments in UP, Assam and Karnataka shot se people like dogs," said Ghosh on Sunday, following which a major controversy erupted, which saw BJP leers apart from entire opposition criticizing comment.

Union Minister Babul Supriyo took to Twitter and was first to criticize comment. tweet was shared by senior BJP leer and Rajya Sabha MP Swapan Dasgupta, as well.

"BJP, as a party has thing to do with what a DIlipGhosh may have said. It is a figment of his imagination and BJP Govts in UP, Assam have never ever resorted to shooting people for whatever reason whatsoever. Very irresponsible of DilipDa to have said what he said," wrote union minister on Twitter. Babul Supriyo later in day reiterated his stand and said that party doesn't abide by comment.

Ghosh unaffected

Dilip Ghosh, however, seemed unaffected by criticism from his own party, leave alone Opposition. "Whatever I have said is what party’s stand is. If we get a chance in Bengal, we will handle it in a similar way," said Dilip Ghosh backing his own stand.

He also lashed out at Mamata Banerjee, alleging that Gorkhas were shot down by police in Darjeeling when y protested on CM's arrival in hills in 2017.
