TMC has institutionalsed corruption in Bengal, says Nadda

The Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP's) national president JP Nadda has accused the ruling TMC government in West Bengal of working with a criminal instinct and said it has institutionalised corruption in the state.  “The point-blank attack on a protectee like me is a testament to the state of law and order to which a regular citizen is subject,” he said. Speaking to reporters in Bardhaman on Saturday accused the state government of depriving the people of the benefits of central schemes like the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi and Ayushman Bharat. “Kisan Samman Nidhi scheme is not applicable in Bengal. "The TMC never represented true Bengali culture. It represents anarchy, corruption and extortion. The BJP and Syama Prasad Mookherjee represent true Bengali culture," Nadda claimed.

Around 26 lakh farmers have registered themselves for the scheme, for which Mamta didi has not given permission. The Prime Minister wants to give respect to farmers, wants to help them, but Mamta Di has become a hindrance in this,” he said. Earlier , Nadda launched the BJP’s first campaign for farmers in poll-bound West Bengal’s East Burdwan, which is considered the state’s rice bowl. He defended the three contentious farm laws enacted in September last year, saying they will enable farmers to set the prices of their products and choose the buyers even as the legislation has triggered protracted protests.
