Union Minister Giriraj Singh on Monday slammed West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, comparing her reigme to that of North Korean dictator Kim Jong-Un's. Slamming her for her politics of 'hate and murder', Giriraj Singh remarked that the TMC Supremo tried to kill off her opposition, or those against her while letting terrorists and anti-nationals 'dance on our heads'. He added, that NDA's massive victory in Bihar would be replicated in West Bengal, with people ushering in the BJP, casting away an atmosphere of hate and 'fear'. 

"Ever since PM Modi has come to power, in the country, terrorists have gone into hiding. However, today under Mamata's rule, terrorists and anti-nationals are dancing on our heads. Like Kim Jong Un, she gets members of her oppositon killed, those who speak against her, hangs people off from trees. It is a politics of hate and murder. Bihar's win is a massive victory, now in Bengal when the citizens who are liviing in fear go to cast their vote, they will only press BJP on the EVMs," he said.
