Mamata Banerjee will be reduced to a ‘beggar's state’: Dilip Ghosh accuses West Bengal CM of selling jobs for money

BJP leader Medinipur MP Dilip Ghosh has said that West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee will be reduced to a “beggar's state". Ghosh’s comment about the West Bengal chief minister came while he was attending an event in the Bardhaman-Durgapur constituency, where the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has fielded him for the Lok Sabha Election 2024.

Ghosh is . The Election Commission has warned him, and his party has censored him for his controversial remarks against Mamata Banerjee.

"Anti-social elements have now become leaders. The people will defeat these thugs. The fear among the people has gone. Now, the public will stand in line and vote decisively. After the vote, they will go to jail,"Hindustan Times Bangla quoted Ghosh as saying.

"The TMC stands by leaders like Shahjahan. The court, CBI, ED are catching these pillars. And after this, Mamata Banerjee will be reduced to a “beggar's state". Shahjahan's money has not only reached the ministers but has gone all the way to Kalighat (where CM Banerjee lives)," Ghosh was quoted as saying by Hindustan Times Bangla.

Ghosh also discussed the alleged School Service Commission (SSC) recruitment scam, accusing the Mamata Banerjee government of taking money to sell jobs.

“The prime minister holds daily fairs to provide jobs while the chief minister takes money to sell jobs. That's the difference. Those who have given jobs for money, the ED and CBI will extract that money from their stomachs," the BJP leader said.

The Bardhaman-Durgapur constituency was formed in 2009. Since then, it has elected representatives from the Communist Party of India (Marxist) (CPI(M)), Trinamool Congress (TMC) and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) one after another in the last three elections.
