TMC attacks BJP on Bengali migrant worker death in Maharashtra; says he was killed for being Bengali



However, a political slugfest started in West Bengal following the murder. Accusing the BJP for targeting the Bengali language, culture and the people, the Trinamool Congress alleged that “Bengalis are being profiled, harassed, deported, lynched”.“This isn’t incidental, it’s a systematic, state-sponsored ethnic purge. You are targeting a language, a culture, a people. Enough. We will fight this barbarism, on the streets, in courts, in Parliament. And if Delhi still remains deaf, we will march to Delhi. You lit this fire, BJP. Now face the fury!” Trinamool thundered at the BJP.However, in response to Trinamool’s allegations, BJP West Bengal state president and Rajya Sabha MP Samik Bhattacharya said, “This politics of Trinamool Congress is a politics of lies, a politics of duplicity, a politics of communal division, a politics of creating extreme provincialism based on language… Today, it is practically a declaration of war against the migrant workers who are working outside West Bengal. The Bengalis who are being arrested in various states, are not citizens of our country.”
