Kolkata (IANS). BJP state president Sukanta Majumdar on Monday said that West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and National Congress Party (NCP) leader Sharad Pawar are two sides of the same coin in establishing dynastic politics in their respective states.
Addressing the media after reaching New Jalpaiguri station in North Bengal, Mazumdar said, “While Pawar is trying to establish his daughter Supriya Sule in politics, Mamata Banerjee is trying the same with her nephew Abhishek Banerjee.” ”
It may be mentioned that on Sunday, Pawar’s nephew and Leader of Opposition in the Maharashtra Legislative Assembly, Ajit Pawar, quit the NCP and took oath as the Deputy Chief Minister in the ruling Shiv Sena-Bharatiya Janata Party government, headed by Chief Minister Eknath Shinde and Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis.
Soon after that development, Mamata Banerjee called up Sharad Pawar, expressing solidarity in this moment of political crisis.
Majumdar said that both the NCP and the Trinamool Congress are raising voices of discontent over their supremo’s efforts to establish dynastic politics in the party.
Majumdar said, “While Pawar is setting up his daughter, similar efforts are being made by Banerjee to set up her nephew. Due to this people in their own parties are disappointed. He said that if the upcoming West Bengal Panchayat elections are free and fair, then the Trinamool Congress will face a crisis and many people will leave the party. Eventually the Trinamool Congress will cease to exist.
