KOLKATA: The Left Front on Sunday called for throwing out the BJP from power at the Centre and the Trinamool Congress in West Bengal, accusing both of being “corrupt and throttlers of democracy”. Alleging that the BJP and the TMC were hand in glove with each other, CPI(M) general secretary Sitaram Yechury sought to know why Mamata Banerjee’s TMC had joined the BJP-led NDA government after the Gujarat riots, which she alleged was engineered by the saffron party, reports PTI.
Both the BJP and the TMC have to be removed from power at the Centre and the state respectively to bring corruption-free governments, he said at a rally at the Brigade Parade Ground here.
“Seeing the sea of humanity here, it is evident that the people will evict Modi from Delhi and Mamata Banerjee from Bengal,” the senior CPI(M) leader said and threatened of an “inferno of resistance” if people were prevented from exercising their franchise by TMC workers in the state.
