‘Speed breaker didi,’ says Modi at a rally in Bengal

Prime Minister Narendra Modi took a sharp dig at West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, calling her the “speed breaker” in the path of development. Ms Banerjee, who tweaked her campaign schedule so she could respond to PM Modi’s attacks, has promised a reply at her rally later yesterday.

“There is a speed breaker in West Bengal, who you know by the name of ‘Didi’. This ‘Didi’ is the speed breaker of your development,” PM Modi told the crowd at a massive rally in north Bengal’s Siliguri from where he launched the BJP’s national election campaign in Bengal. “I am waiting for this speed breaker to go so development can gather speed,” he said.

PM Modi hit out at Ms Banerjee and her government over the chit fund cases in the state and development policies. He said Ms Banerjee has to go to make way for the betterment of the state.

The Prime Minister also attacked Ms Banerjee for pulling out of the central health scheme, Ayushman Bharat.
