Mamata Banerjee targets BJP government, says 'we want to see 'sachhe din'

Targeting the BJP-led government, Mamata Banerjee alleged that her phone is tapped



Amid efforts towards opposition unity, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Wednesday targeted the BJP government on various issues including the allegations of Pegasus spyware surveillance and said "we want to see 'sacche din', saw enough of 'achhe din'".

Mamata Banerjee, who is in the national capital, did not rule out her taking the lead of a grouping of opposition parties to take on the BJP-led government in the next Lok Sabha polls. "We will sit together and decide, I am not a political astrologer. The decisions depend on the system, depends on political parties. I cannot impose my decision on others," she said.

"Poore desh me khela hoga, it's a continuous process. When general elections come (2024), it will be Modi versus country," she added.

BJP had raised slogan of 'ache din' ahead of 2014 Lok Sabha elections.

Referring to her meetings with Congress president Sonia Gandhi and other opposition leaders, she said "we are talking to each other".

"Sonia Gandhi also wants opposition unity. After the Parliament session, we must start meeting. When we will meet there will be a political discussion. I'm a simple worker," she said.

Targeting the BJP-led government, Mamata Banerjee alleged that her phone is tapped.

"My phone is already tapped. If Abhishek's (Abhishek Banerjee) phone is tapped, then my phone is automatically tapped as I am talking to him. There is no freedom of the press, Pegasus is a deadly virus that has put everyone's life in danger," she said.

Asked about I-PAC team having been detained in Agartala, she said: "We sent some people to Tripura. They are house arrested. If a journalist goes there, they are being threatened like this."

Mamata Banerjee arrived in Delhi on Monday and met Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday.

Lathi Charge: A legalised method of police brutality

"Every blow on our bodies this afternoon is like a nail driven into the coffin of British imperialism." These were the precise words of Sher-e-Punjab Lala Lajpat Rai when he got brutally " lathi-charged " by the law enforcers of Colonial India while he was protesting against the Simon Commission in October 1928.  Punjab Kesari Lajpat Rai eventually succumbed to his injuries, and his death gave off the spark for vengeance in the heart of numerous Indian revolutionaries. In December 1928, Shahid-e-Azam Bhagat Singh and his compatriot Shivam Rajguru assassinated the Lahore Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) John Saunders to avenge the murder of their mentor. "Lathi-Charge" has remained one of the most brutal and sensitive issues for Indians since the bygone days of the Indian National Movement. Thus, even after 75 years of liberation, India and her children continue to writhe under pain brought on by police brutality and paranoia. Both the Indian Penal...

" India is an over populous country. " This statement is hardly news to anyone, but very few of us know that the average age of an Indian is just 29 years old. Hence, India is a fairly young country with a strong demographic dividend. However, the ambitions and dreams of millions of Indians lie stranded despite their ability and competence. Each new year brings fresh new hopes for millions of aspirants. These young people have expressed their strong will by deciding to dedicate the prime of their youth to preparing for numerous government examinations. In a country where social class divisions continue to be a notable phenomenon in determining one's future, Government jobs and recruitments offer the only genuine means for attaining an egalitarian society. Today, even this little scope for upliftment gets marred under the evils of Paper leaks and Recruitment scams. The problem of the youth, in essence, is the problem of the nation, and it is high time we illustrated the gr...
