Union home minister Rajnath Singh claimed the Trinamul Congress government had failed to bring about a change in the lives of West Bengal’s people in its four-and-a-half years in power.

Union home minister Rajnath Singh claimed the Trinamul Congress government had failed to bring about a change in the lives of West Bengal’s people in its four-and-a-half years in power.

“The people in Bengal had welcomed the parivartan with hope. But I want to ask what has the Trinamul Congress government done in four-and-a-half years Has it succeeded in bringing a change in people’s lives Instead, the people are feeling cheated,” Mr Singh said.

Shifting his focus to the recent Malda violence, Mr Singh accused the state government of not taking appropriate action against those involved in violence. He promised that the culprits would not go unpunished.

“The Malda incident was not a small one. What happened there should come out into the open. Those who burnt a police station will be unmasked and they will be sent to jail. Just a few arrests will not suffice. We will unravel the truth and find those responsible for the incident,” Mr Singh said.
