Babul Supriyo is the BJP s Lok Sabha MP from Asansol (File)
Kolkata:
BJP MP Babul Supriyo broke with tradition on Sunday evening as he refused to congratulate the ruling Trinamool Congress on an emphatic win in the 2021 Bengal Assembly election.
In a short but angry Facebook post Mr Supriyo said the Bengali voters had made a historic mistake and lashed out at party chief Mamata Banerjee, whom he labelled a cruel lady . Neither will I congratulate Mamata Banerjee. nor do I wish to say I respect the people s verdict. sincerely think people of Bengal made a historic mistake by not giving BJP a chance. by electing this corrupt, incapable, dishonest government and a cruel lady back to power, he ranted.
