Abhishek Banerjee Criticizes Modi's Meditation Spectacle, Affirms TMC's Electoral Strength

Trinamool Congress's national general secretary, Abhishek Banerjee, criticizes Prime Minister Narendra Modi for turning his meditation session into a media spectacle. Banerjee also questions Modi's electoral strategies and touches on TMC's performance and BJP's political maneuvers and reliance on central support.

Trinamool Congress national general secretary Abhishek Banerjee on Saturday accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of turning his meditation session in Kanyakumari into a media spectacle funded by taxpayers' money.

Banerjee emphasized the personal nature of meditation, warning against making it a public spectacle. 'You, me, and everybody can meditate. But please don't make it a media spectacle,' he told reporters after casting his vote.

On Modi's decision to contest from Varanasi, Banerjee suggested that the rejection of other candidates' nominations raises questions about Modi's confidence. Addressing his own constituency, Diamond Harbour, Banerjee expressed confidence in TMC's prospects and criticized the BJP's predictions of victory.

Banerjee denounced Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah for threatening to topple democratically elected state governments, accusing them of disrespecting democratic principles. He also criticized the BJP for manipulating state institutions and emphasized TMC's commitment to social welfare.
