Earlier on Saturday, Ghosh alleged that the Mamata Banerjee-led dispensation is involved in corruption and the people are "frustrated" with the ruling party. He also said that there are misrule and corruption everywhere in West Bengal. People have lost faith in this government. "People of West Bengal have started believing the BJP leadership," he added. 

Responding to Ghosh's comment, TMC leader Kinal Ghosh said, "Suvendu Adhikari got adequate respect and position in TMC. He was TMC MP, MLA, State minister and chairperson of a couple of public service boards. BJP is talking rubbish. It was BJP who showed video clips of Suvendu Adhikari in Narada sting case. Now Suvendu babu has to decide who gave him respect and who disrespected him.”
