Following accusations from Prime Minister Modi about violence and corruption in West Bengal, Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee refutes these claims, labeling them politically motivated.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi recently accused the Trinamool Congress (TMC) government in West Bengal of fostering violence and corruption. In response, Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has refuted these allegations as 'vicious and false,' describing them as politically motivated for narrow power gains.

Banerjee, in a social media post, accused the Prime Minister of spreading 'blatant untruths' about her government. She highlighted significant development achievements in Alipurduar, including infrastructure projects and social welfare schemes, which she claims benefit all residents without bias.

Banerjee enumerated various administrative initiatives, such as establishing Alipurduar as the state's 20th district and implementing social schemes benefiting tens of thousands. She also mentioned the reopening of tea estates, the construction of houses, and the development of industrial parks, aimed at boosting local employment and economy.
