In 2014 @narendramodi promised "Achche Din aane wale hain" (prosperous days are coming). 11 years later where is "Achche Din"? My speech in Parliament. youtube.com/watch?v=WBoprU…
5/5: Read #ThePrintOpinion by Sagarika Ghose @sagarikaghose ‘BJP is othering Bengalis. Its Hindi imperialism won’t work’ theprint.in/opinion/bjp-be…
The @BJP4India IT cell & its cheerleaders are busily tweeting how @narendramodi has gone past #IndiraGandhi as second longest serving PM without a break since Nehru. But Modi already has one record that no prime minister can match: the longest serving PM not to have held a single…
The @AITCofficial under the leadership of @MamataOfficial will relentlessly fight for justice for all Bangla speaking citizens of India being tormented in @BJP4India ruled states and dubbed “Bangladeshi” when they are all citizens of India.
Today a team of @AITCofficial with our colleague Cooch Behar MP Jagadish Basunia again visited Jai Hind Bengali migrant workers colony in Delhi. All here are citizens of India. They have now got a stay on the eviction notice but their water and electricity has still not started.…
The @BJP4India ‘s attack on Bangla speakers continues. Illegal and unconstitutional actions against Bangla speakers will be given a fitting response. We will NOT step back from our fight for justice for Bangla speaking citizens of India.
Have been increasingly receiving reports of detentions of and atrocities on our Bengali-speaking people from different districts of West Bengal in Gurgaon, Haryana. West Bengal police is receiving these reports from Haryana police in the name of requests for identity searches.…
#TheLastWord with @maryashakil | Trinamool Congress MP Sagarika Ghose says the BJP is playing nasty politics under the name of Special Intensive Revision. She says the BJP's real target is West Bengal and that it is conspiring through the ECI @sagarikaghose
The fundamental flaw with the @ECISVEEP’s Special Intensive Revision ( SIR) exercise is that it is about EXCLUSION, NOT INCLUSION. I shared my views on @ndtv ndtv.com/video/sir-is-a…
What steps is the government taking to raise with the government in Dhaka, the urgent issue of attacks on Hindu communities in Bangladesh. I asked this question in Parliament.
We held a non stop dharna at Jai Hind colony last week. The @AITCofficial on the direction of @MamataOfficial is relentlessly fighting for justice for Bangla speaking migrant workers, citizens of India being tormented by @BJP4India and dubbed “Bangladeshi.”
Eviction of Jai Hind Bengali migrants workers colony STAYED. An important first step in @AITCofficial and @MamataOfficial’s campaign to ensure justice for EVERY BENGALI SPEAKING citizen of India. The Bangla- virodhi @narendramodi government & Bangla hating @BJP4India will NOT…
So gratified to hear this. Eviction of #JaiHind Bengali migrant workers STAYED. @AITCofficial held a non stop dharna here only last week . #StopattackingBangla
BIG RELIEF FOR VASANT KUNJ SLUM DWELLERS Patiala House Court stays civil court order directing eviction of Jai Hind Camp near Vasant Kunj. @PTI_News
10 questions for @ECISVEEP and Gujarat’s Jodi No. 1 Mr @AmitShah and Mr @narendramodi on the #specialintensiverevision or SIR. Reup.
The @ECISVEEP is busy “fact checking” the Opposition. Why doesn’t it answer these 10 questions instead.
*NO retribution for China’s actions in Galwan *China claims Arunachal as its own *Border dispute continues in Ladakh *China aids Pakistan in Operation Sindoor What does @narendramodi govt do? Bans Tik Tok, but happily resumes tourist visas to China. Whatever happened to 56…
It is shocking that the Modi Govt’s survey ON UNEMLOYMENT, (PLFS), MISLEADS the citizens into believing that unemployment in India is as low as 4% or thereabouts. 70% of leading economists of the world, recently surveyed by Reuters, believe that the official jobless data of Govt…
Raised a Rule 377 matter in Parliament today on the humanitarian crisis at Jai Hind Colony,Vasant Kunj Delhi. Hundreds of Bengali speaking migrant families face illegal eviction,power cuts&water blockade. I urge immediate restoration of services &a humane review. @MamataOfficial
4/5: The cultural traditions of Bengal will not accept this wicked politics. Whether we live in Delhi or Kolkata, Bengalis are too proud of our state and language to accept a narrative that casts us as inferior to Hindi or the states of the Hindi belt.
3/5: The BJP’s hate-filled politics of trying to paint Bangla speakers and Bengalis as “Bangladeshis” and “Rohingya” is not only a horrendous, prejudiced abuse of the nationality of a neighbouring country, but also a nasty attempt to “other” the Bengali from the rest of Indians.
