Summary:

Pursura (Hooghly): Accusing BJP of insulting Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose and Bengal by raising "Jai Shri Ram" slogans during his 125th birth anniversary event, Trinamool Congress chairperson Mamata Banerjee on Monday lashed out at the saffron party and said the answer to the disrespect will be given politically. Branding the BJP as a group of "outsiders" and "Bharat Jalao Party", that has been continuously insulting the icons of Bengal, with Netaji being the latest addition, Banerjee said: "I would have saluted them if they had raised slogans hailing Netaji. This shows their culture," the Trinamool Congress supremo thundered slamming BJP as they had earlier insulted Rabindranath Tagore by stating that Visva Bharati was his birthplace and ransacked a bust of Ishwar Chandra Vidyasagar. Reiterating that Trinamool Congress will return to power in Bengal, Banerjee urged people not to cast a single vote in favour of BJP, CPI(M) and the Congress. She also assured jute mill workers that their issues will be addressed and urged them not to trust the BJP..
