West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has targeted Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath for the ongoing Mahakumbh in Prayagraj. Citing the recent stampede incidents, Mamta described Mahakumbh as ‘death Aquarius’. He said that special facilities are being given to VIPs but the poor are being denied it.
Mamta Banerjee said, ‘Mahakumbh has now turned into death Aquarius. VIP people are being given special facilities. Not only Mamta Banerjee but many leaders of the opposition are attacking CM Yogi about Mahakumbh and are accusing them of chaos and misconduct.
‘Dead bodies were sent to Bengal without postmortem’
Mamta said on Tuesday, ‘You should have planned such a big event. After the stampede incident, how many commissions were sent to Kumbh. The bodies were sent to Bengal without post -mortem. They will say that people died of a heart attack and they will not be compensated.
‘You sell religion to divide the country’
He said, ‘You sell religion to divide the country. We did a postmortem here because you sent the bodies without a death certificate. How will these people get compensation? Earlier, senior Samajwadi Party leader and MLA Shivpal Singh Yadav launched a scathing attack on the UP government over Mahakumbh. He said that there is no mention of coming to Kumbh after 144 years in the scriptures, if it is, then these people should tell.
Shivpal Yadav also targeted
Samajwadi Party leader Shivpal Yadav said, ‘Government money has been misused for PR. Such a government should resign. The chaos is dominated. Shivpal alleged that the government is playing with people’s faith by pretending to be Sanatan Dharma. The real objective of the government is to exploit the trust of the public. These people have nothing to do with faith.
