PRERIT CHAUHAN - TEN NEWS
New Delhi: (25/03/2019) BJP on Monday stepped up attack on Trinamool Congress and its leader Abhishek Banerjee over the controversial episode in which his wife had confrontation with customs officials at Kolkata Airport.
Addressing the Media at BJP HQ, BJP spokesperson Shahnawaz Hussain said,
“Mamata Banerjee should tell the people what was being brought in those suitcases that the Kolkata police had to terrorize customs officials to prevent them from checking them.”
BJP Rajya Sabha member Swapan Dasgupta asked why the Kolkata Police entered an area which falls under the jurisdiction of the customs department.
“Mamata Banerjee is deliberately trying to provoke a constitutional crisis,” said Swapan Dasgupta.
He further said, “If Abhishek Banerjee’s wife had nothing to hide, then why she and the woman accompanying her resisted their luggage being checked by the customs department, The TMC should answer these questions.”
