Gangarampur (WB), Apr 14 (PTI) Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Tuesday said the BJP will resolve the Gorkha issue in the Darjeeling hills in a constitutional manner without dividing West Bengal.
Addressing a poll rally in Gangarampur in the north Bengal district of Dakshin Dinajpur, he alleged that Aam Janata Unnayan Party founder Humayun Kabir was an “agent” of Chief Minister and TMC supremo Mamata Banerjee and that he was constructing the mosque styled on Babri Masjid with her consent.
“The BJP won’t allow the mosque to be built,” he asserted.
Shah also promised that the supply of potatoes from West Bengal to other states will be opened up to ensure that the farmers get remunerative prices for their produce.
“The BJP will end political violence, syndicate raj, and evict infiltrators from West Bengal after it forms the government,” he said.
Shah also reiterated the party’s manifesto promises that an AIIMS, a 600-bed cancer hospital, an IIT, an IIM, and a sports university would be constructed in north Bengal.
He said Rajbanshi language would be included in the Eighth Schedule of the Constitution, and an eco-adventure hub would be constructed in Darjeeling. PTI SMY ACD
