Union minister Niranjan Jyoti lying; ready to meet her at Raj Bhavan, not BJP office: Abhishek
PTI, Oct 7, 2023, 6:22 PM IST
Senior Trinamool Congress leader Abhishek Banerjee on Saturday slammed Union Minister Sadhvi Niranjan Jyoti for allegedly spreading falsehood about a meeting with the party’s delegation in New Delhi and stated that the TMC is prepared to meet her at Raj Bhavan to discuss the MGNREGA issue.
Banerjee, the TMC national general secretary, also condemned the union minister of state for rural development for allegedly asking the TMC delegation to come to the state BJP office for a discussion on the state’s MGNREGA “dues”, labelling it as a manifestation of a “Zamindari” culture mindset.
“When we went to meet her in New Delhi, she not only refused to meet us after making us wait for a long time, but also instructed the police to remove us from Krishi Bhawan. Just yesterday, I had mentioned that senior BJP leaders, including Giriraj Singh and Sadhvi Niranjan Jyoti, would come to Kolkata to meet us sensing the people’s anger,” Banerjee said during the sit-in near the Raj Bhavan which entered its third day on Saturday.
