‘Mamata Banerjee losing, frustrated’: Ravi Shankar Prasad – Read
New Delhi, Apr 6:
Senior BJP leader Ravi Shankar Prasad on Sunday launched a sharp attack on West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee over her remarks questioning Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs), alleging that her statements reflect “frustration” amid electoral pressure.
Reacting to Banerjee’s comments, Prasad said, “Mamata Banerjee is losing and is frustrated. She has won twice through EVMs, right? How did she become Chief Minister, through EVMs, isn’t it? Yes, in gram panchayat elections there are allegations of loot with ballot papers. So when you win through EVMs, they are fine, but now when people want to defeat you, you say the system is faulty, what kind of thinking is this?”
He further pointed out that several opposition leaders, including those from the Congress, have also been elected through EVMs. “Today, the Congress party is in power in several places, and their MPs have also been elected through EVMs. This kind of frustration indicates only one thing, that Mamata Banerjee is losing there,” he added.
