“First his leader @MamataOfficial labels Biharis & UPites as "Bohiragotos" & now this clarion call to make Bengal free of Biharis,” he wrote in another tweet.
In the video shared by Suvendu Adhikari, TMC member Manoranjan Byapari could be heard hurling disgraceful remarks about people of Bihar.
"If Bengali blood runs through your veins...If the blood of Khudiram and Netaji (Subhash Chandra Bose) runs through your veins and if you love your mother tongue and motherland, then you have to shout out loud - 'Ek Bihari, sou bimari' (One person from Bihar is equal to 100 diseases)'. We don't want diseases. Make Bengal disease-free. Jai Bangla, Jai Didi Mamata Banerjee," Byapari could be heard saying in the video.
He could be further heard saying, "If everything is fine in Bihar, then…go back to Bihar."

The Trinamool Congress had distanced itself from Byapari’s comments, but the MLA, however, said that he did not mean to target the entire community but “some people”, reported NDTV.
The Mamata Banerjee-led TMC has fielded Shatrughan Sinha from Asansol in the bypolls which left vacant after Babul Supriyo left BJP. Supriyo is contesting the bypolls from Ballygunge.
