Naxalbari, 20th April: Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge addressed an election rally in Naxalbari in support of party candidates and launched a sharp attack on the BJP over the women’s reservation bill.
According to reports, Kharge held a public meeting at the Nanda Prasad Balika Vidyalaya ground in Naxalbari, where he urged voters to support Congress candidates in the upcoming elections. He was accompanied by central leaders Ghulam Ahmad Mir and Pappu Yadav.
Addressing the gathering, Kharge alleged that the BJP used the women’s bill as a cover to push delimitation for political gains, claiming it was an attempt to divide the country and states for electoral advantage. He said women would not forgive such actions.
He also criticised both Prime Minister Modi and Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, stating that Bengal is suffering and accusing Modi of being more focused on foreign visits.
