KOLKATA: Attacking Prime Minister Narendra Modi, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Thursday said he is unable to accept the loss of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in the state assembly polls.
Addressing a press conference, the chief minister said, “In Uttar Pradesh today, Prime Minister Modi said that most of the vaccines are being given to that state. If you do not give money and vaccines to Bengal, that is injustice. He is slandering Bengal by misusing central agencies and running a political vendetta. He is unable to accept his loss.” “We need 14 crore vaccine doses but we are not receiving vaccines adequately. We have received only 2.12 crore vaccines. We have bought 18 lakh vaccines ourselves. Some states are receiving more vaccines, some are not receiving at all.”
On the issue of political violence, Banerjee alleged that the BJP-led central government has been running political vendetta and trying to malign West Bengal. She further said there is no rule of law in Uttar Pradesh but the Centre wants to defame West Bengal. ANI
