TMC general secretary Abhishek Banerjee Saturday slammed the Centre for sending central teams to West Bengal and said attempts are on to malign the state government as Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee had not bowed before it.
The cadres of the CPI(M)-led Left Front have also joined hands with the saffron camp, he said hitting out at the BJP and the Left parties.
''The Centre has stopped funds due to Bengal, but is very prompt in sending central teams to it to malign the state government. As Mamata Banerjee has not bowed down to the Centre, it is using these theatrics to malign the TMC.
''We bow only before the masses and not the masters of Delhi,'' he said at a public rally here.
Accusing the Left and the saffron party of forging a ''tacit alliance'' in the state, Banerjee said, ''Now, the CPI(M) and the BJP have become one in Bengal.''
