BJP slams West Bengal CM Mamata for threatening Amit Shah

BJP on Wednesday criticised West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee for allegedly threatening Union Home Minister Amit Shah, who is on a visit to the state, and alleged that she has been running a “tanasahi” (dictatorship).

Addressing a press conference here, BJP national spokesperson Sambit Patra alleged that Banerjee, while addressing a public meeting in Bankura district, threatened the Home Minister of India that she “allowed” him to come out of the hotel where he was staying in



Kolkata.

Patra said, “Mamata Banerjee has threatened the Home Minister of India in words which cannot even be thought of. We have seen it. She said that you (Shah) are hiding in a hotel. 

If we want, you cannot step out of the hotel. You are lucky that we allowed you to come out of the hotel.” He claimed that it is not only a threat to the Union home minister, but to the entire population of the country.

“This is Hitler-sahi and tanasahi,” Patra alleged.
