West Bengal chief minister and Trinamool Congress leader Mamata Banerjee expressed her shock and wondered as to how Pakistan got the courage to carry out such an act ahead of the Lok Sabha election and questioned the timing of the Pulwama terror attack.
Attacking the Narendra Modi government at the Centre, Banerjee said, “If Pakistanis have done this, then how did you allow them to do it? What actions have you taken in the last five years? When elections are knocking at the door … You have felt the need to wage a war. You have felt the need to engage in a shadow war. You have felt the need to play with the lives of the people. Did you see what Amit Shah had said yesterday? Instead of taking responsibility, they are indulging in politics.”
While demanding an investigation, the chief minister said, “We have got reports that some RSS pracharaks are roaming the streets at night, holding the national flag to create trouble. We do not support this kind of activities in the name of nationalism. We urge the people to not fall prey to such activities.”
She also accused the Bharatiya Janata Party and Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh trying to incite violence across West Bengal in the wake of the attack.
