Mithun Chakraborty: Claims Mamata Fabricates Bengali Harassment Claims
Mithun Chakraborty, a BJP leader, says the Chief Minister of West Bengal is making up a story about Bengalis being treated unfairly in other states.
He says it's not true and that the real problem is illegal immigrants trying to vote.
He claims the government is just trying to remove these fake voters from the list.
He also thinks the current government is afraid of losing the upcoming election.
He is asking people to help the government find the fake voters.
Mithun Chakraborty, a BJP leader, accused West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee of creating a false narrative regarding harassment of Bengali speakers.
Chakraborty stated that Bengali-speaking people have not faced harassment in BJP-ruled states.
He refuted allegations that the Election Commission of India (ECI) is selectively removing Bengali voters' names from voter lists.
Chakraborty claimed that only illegal infiltrators are being removed and that the Trinamool Congress fears losing the 2026 elections due to this.
