Himanta invoked Aurangazeb to attack Mamata-Rahul
way2barak, March 3: Assam chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma invoked Mughal emperor Aurangzeb to attack West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee and Congress leader Rahul Gandhi.
Speaking at a gathering in Kolkata, Sarma said that as Aurangzeb had ‘vowed to end Hinduism’ but failed to do so, both Banerjee and Gandhi will also fail.
“Aurangzeb had vowed to destroy Hinduism, but Hinduism did not end, Aurangzeb ended. Today, I would like to say to Mamata Banerjee and Rahul Gandhi that if they think that they can end Hinduism, I would like to tell them that Hinduism will not end. They will end. Hinduism can never end,” Sarma said.
“We have a 5000-year-old history. Ups and downs are natural. Sometimes TMC will come in Bengal. Sometimes Congress will come in the country. But Narendra Modi will also come,” Sarma added amid applause.
TMC leader Kunal Ghosh alleged that Sarma’s party (BJP) does the politics of religion.
“Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma is talking nonsense. His party does Hindu, Muslim, and Christian. But this is Bengal, here Hindus, Muslims and Christians, are all supporters of Mamata Banerjee… Entire Bengal (supports her), because the development schemes here do not have the name of any religion on them,” the TMC leader said.
