TMC Leader calls "dal badlu" to Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sharma

Following the remark coming from Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma that he would roll out the red carpet to welcome Trinamool Congress (TMC)  chief Mamta Banarjee, the TMC leader Saugata Roy on Sunday condemned Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma calling him a ''dal badlu'' for his "red carpet" remark against West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee.

"I give no importance to what he says. He is a ''dal badlu'' (party hopper). He became Chief Minister after replacing Sarbananda Sonowal, who is a very good man. He left Congress because Tarun Gogoi became the Chief Minister," Mr. Roy said while speaking to ANI.

He further added in his statement by criticizing the CM that "Under his government, Assam police personnel died in the Mizoram border dispute, Dimasa rebels kill truck drivers. The situation in Assam is grave. He shouldn't comment on West Bengal, and instead, look after his state. TMC will go to Assam..." he said

The verbal attack came after Mr. Sarma on Sunday said that he would roll out a red carpet to welcome Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee during her possible visit to Assam, adding that her visit will help BJP in the elections as more votes will get divided between Congress and TMC.

The Chief Minister during his visit to Siliguri in West Bengal said "The more she visits Assam and Tripura, the more it will benefit us (BJP). It will be beneficial for us if she visits Assam and Tripura as the votes will be divided between Congress and TMC. I will welcome her by rolling out a red carpet."

Hitting out Mr. Sarma for his "Mamata Banerjee's Assam visit will benefit BJP" remark, Mr. Roy said, "What he meant was that if Mamata Banerjee gets more votes in Assam, it will help BJP. It will divide the Bengali and Muslim vote banks...But he should not be complacent."

"We shall get minority votes, Bengali votes and shall also get Assamese Hindu votes in Assam...TMC hopes to do well in Assam in the future," he added.

The TMC is trying to knock the North Eastern east as it already looking forward to fighting against BJP in Tripura's coming election. However, it has also set its vigilant eye in Assam.
