BJP seeks action against ATIC leader’s remark
The state Bharatiya Janata Party has sought action against the All India Trinamool Congress leader Sujata Mondal Khan for her alleged insulting and disparaging remarks against members of the Scheduled Castes community in West Bengal.
In a petition submitted to the President of India through the deputy commissioner of East Khasi Hills district on Wednesday, BJP state president Ernest Mawrie said, “Her shocking statement calling the Scheduled Castes of West Bengal “beggars”, intentionally insults with the intent to humiliate the entire Scheduled Caste population of West Bengal, is condemnable and amounts to promoting feelings of enmity, hatred and ill will against the members of the Scheduled Castes community in West Bengal.”

Stating that such statements are a blow to the democratic republic, Mawrie said, “It is utterly shameful and disgraceful that such statements are being openly and brazenly made by the ruling leadership of the Trinamool Congress to create enmity and hatred between different social classes in West Bengal.”
The BJP has also urged the President to take action against the leader and the AITC which has chosen to promote feelings of enmity and hatred against a certain section for vote-bank politics.
According to Mawrie, complaints against the party have also been made to the Election Commission of India and the National Commission for Scheduled Castes.
