“Gandhi ji, Netaji, Vivekananda, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, Guru Nanak ji, Gautam Buddha, Jains...all will stay together in the country. We won’t let anyone divide India,” she added, ANI reported.
The Trinamool Congress (TMC) supremo, who was addressing a public rally in Bhabanipur, alleged the BJP is a “jumla” party.
“They lie saying that we don't allow Durga Puja, Laxmi Puja in the state,” she added.
Banerjee’s remarks come as she is gearing up for the upcoming Bhabanipur by-poll.
The TMC chief had earlier accused the BJP of pursuing vendetta politics stating that her party leaders are being summoned by central agencies just after the announcement of dates for the by-polls.
Banerjee, who lost the election in Nandigram to protégé-turned-rival Suvendu Adhikari of the BJP, has to win this by-poll to retain her post.
The TMC supremo has to become a member of the state legislature by November 5.
The BJP has fielded Priyanka Tibrewal to take on the TMC supremo in the Bhabanipur by-poll to be held on September 30.
The counting of votes will take place on October 3.
