A day after West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee remarked that the prime minister's criticism of her government was unexpected, BJP state unit president Dilip Ghosh today said that she had also verbally attacked the PM on several occasions.

Ghosh said Banerjee should ponder why the PM had to express concern about the prevailing situation in Bengal.

"She had slammed the PM and used bad words against him on many occasions," Ghosh said at a press conference here.

Banerjee yesterday had said, "We never expected the prime minister to speak in this manner... The prime minister has spoken against us but I have not reacted because of courtesy. He has spoken on whatever he was briefed by the BJP workers without cross-checking facts."
