Abhishek addresses first rally after recovering from injury

Trinamool Youth Congress chief Abhishek Banerjee today addressed his first rally in nearly six months after recovering from an injury caused by a car accident and described his comeback as his 'second innings' in politics.
"This is like an second innings for me in politics. I thank the people for their support, love and blessings. I am back because of the wishes and prayers of people," Banerjee said while addressing a public meeting at Diamond Harbour, his Lok Sabha constituency, in South 24 Parganas district.
Nephew of West Bengal Chief Minister and TMC supremo Mamata Banerjee, he was seriously injured when his SUV hit a trailer near Singur in Hooghly district last October.

Banerjee, who was absent from party meetings and rallies since the accident, attended the party core committee meeting on Saturday after many months.
In his speech, Banerjee accused the Centre of misusing agencies like CBI, ED to intimidate Trinamool.
"But they do not know that Trinamool is different from other parties. The people of Bengal will give them a befitting reply democratically," he said.

Stating that nobody has the right to dictate what one should eat or wear, Banerjee said, "There is no difference between Hindus and Muslims. Our culture teaches us 'Sarva Dharma Samanya'. Swami Vivekananda had said that everyone has the freedom to eat what they want to."

Referring to the alleged involvement of BJP leaders in the child trafficking rackets unearthed in the state, Banerjee demanded a thorough investigation into the matter.
He said that TMC fulfilled the promises it made during elections but the BJP did not.
TMC kept the promise of returning lands in Singur to farmers but BJP did not brought back black money from foreign shores as promised, Banerjee said.
On the next panchayat polls, he said that the party would win even if all parties come together against Trinamool as as there was no alternative to Mamata Banerjee in the state.
