In a fresh development, on Sunday, West Bengal Opposition Leader Suvendu Adhikari has came up with a severe attack on Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee. He claimed that bomb blasts would keep happening in the state as long as she was in power. His sudden reaction came after a fatal explosion of a crude bomb in East Burdwan district, killing one man and injuring another.
“Bomb blasts will keep happening as long as Mamata Banerjee is the Chief Minister of West Bengal,” Adhikari added. He pointed out that Trinamool Congress (TMC) government is responsible for failing to curb the growing threat of explosives and illegal activities in West Bengal.

Suvendu Adhikari also claimed that 540 kilometres of the India-Bangladesh border are still not fenced because of non-cooperation of the West Bengal state government in transferring the land to Centre.
