Mamata berates Buddhadeb for suggesting TMC's resort to terror

Press Trust Of India
West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee today berated CPI(M) veteran Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee for suggesting that the Trinamool Congress would resort to terror in the Lok Sabha election.

Without naming Bhattacharjee, the chief minister said that the man who had presided over "a demonic and inhuman" government for 34 years had forfeited the right to say this.

Bhattacharjee, the former West Bengal chief minister, yesterday said at a party rally at Belgatchia in north Kolkata that "TMC had resorted to violence at the panchayat election" and would also adopt similar tactic to intimidate the voters in the Lok Sabha polls.
