Don’t give them your account number, even by mistake; they’ll take away the money from your Lakshmi Bhandar. This is their trick,\u201d she said. <\/p>\n Watch<\/span><\/p>\n Malda Violence Explained: NIA Probe, Arrests And AIMIM Link In WB’s Voter Roll Row<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n She has repeatedly highlighted the state government\u2019s Lakshmi Bhandar scheme, claiming it has benefited women, and cautioning voters against BJP promises. She earlier said, \u201cWomen have benefited. BJP will give some money before the polls, but close it after.” The scheme was rolled out in 2021 to provide financial assistance to women from economically weaker sections of society. Under the scheme women of age between 25 to 60 years are provided Rs 1,200 every month to women SC\/ST households and Rs 1,000 per month to other beneficiaries are provided.The chief minister also criticised the Congress, alleging a lack of coordination on electoral issues.\u201cWe had told the Congress several times that we should go to the Election Commission together to protest, but you didn’t go. Today, you’ll field candidates and win elections, but you won’t stand with the people in their difficult times,\u201d she said.Banerjee further alleged that large sums of money is being circulated during elections, urging voters to remain vigilant.Earlier, the CM in an election rally in Purulia, had alleged that if BJP would interfere with Bengal\u2019s food culture, including consumption of fish and meat, if voted to power.Addressing the gathering, she had said, \u201cBJP says can’t eat fish, meat, eggs; they don’t believe in any religion; they resort to riots; Adivasis are exploited, women attacked in BJP-ruled states.\u201dHer remarks align with the TMC\u2019s campaign narrative portraying the BJP as disconnected from Bengal\u2019s cultural practices.<\/p>\n Poll<\/p>\n Do you believe that women issues are adequately addressed by political leaders in West Bengal?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Escalating her criticism, Banerjee also targeted the BJP leadership, referring to Union home minister Amit Shah\u2019s recent remarks. \u201cA big BJP leader has unleashed his \u2018chargesheet\u2019 against TMC; a \u2018chargesheet\u2019 should be filed against them. There were so many riots in Gujarat,\u201d she said.<\/div>\n\n
