WATCH | Mamata Banerjee Takes Dig At PM Modi's Beard; Says Industrial Growth Has Stopped, Only Beard Is Growing

The Chief Minister’s fresh attack against the Prime Minister comes as her party is locked in a bitter contest with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for the throne of Kolkata.

Kolkata: With barely few hours left for the much-awaited first phase of the West Bengal Assembly elections, Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Friday took a jibe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi and said the nation’s industrial growth has stopped “but the growth of beard is still on”.

Continuing her diatribe against the Prime Minister, the Trinamool Congress (TMC) supremo said “something is wrong with his brain”.

“It seems his screw is loose. Sometimes he calls himself Swami Vivekananda and Rabindranath Tagore while on the other hand, he renames stadiums on his name,” said Banerjee.

“Don’t know when he will sell the country and make it under his own identity,” she added while reiterating her earlier assertions that Prime Minister Modi is a self-obsessed leader.

The Chief Minister’s fresh attack against the Prime Minister comes as her party is locked in a bitter contest with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for the throne of Kolkata.

The BJP too has left no stones unturned in building its political base in West Bengal in the run up to the assembly polls with Prime Minister Modi and Union Home Minister leading the charge against the TMC.
