Narendra Modi.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi, on Monday, alleged that BJP workers in West Bengal are being killed only for their political ideology. However, the ruling Trinamool Congress dismissed the charge as baseless and claimed that on the contrary, TMC members were being targeted in political violence in the state.

Addressing a thanksgiving rally in Varanasi, which elected him for the Lok Sabha, Modi said, “Take the affairs of Kerala or Kashmir, Bengal or Tripura … they won’t come in the media. Some people have selective sensitivity. Only political ideology has killed hundreds of workers. In Tripura, workers were hanged. In Bengal, murders are still in progress. Also, in Kerala ... Perhaps, only one political party in India has faced such killings. Violence has been given legitimacy. This is a threat to us.”

On Friday night, a 23-year-old Bharatiya Janata Party worker was shot dead in Chakdaha town of Nadia district. The BJP alleged TMC men were behind the incident. On her part, TMC supremo and West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee, on Saturday, said the murder could be the result of infighting within the BJP.
