CAA: Dilip Ghosh calls WB CM Mamta 'anti-national', says 'she is speaking Pak's language'

West Bengal Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) chief Dilip Ghosh lashed out at Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee for opposing implementation of the Citizenship (Amendment) Act by claiming that she is carrying out "anti-national" activities. Ghosh accused Mamata Banerjee of speaking the language of Pakistan. He also said that she has no right to hold the CM's post. "Mamata Banerjee is indulging in anti-national activities. She is speaking the language of Pakistan. The elected Chief Minister is neither accepting the Parliament nor the President. In such a situation, she has no right to be in the post," he said while speaking to media. "The way Pakistan says to go to the United Nations (UN) on every issue, similarly Mamata Banerjee is also refusing to accept the law of the country and is talking about going to the UN," he added.

I have the right to question." She has repeatedly stated, "We will never allow NRC exercise and Citizenship Act in Bengal."
