Kolkata: Extending his gratitude to all the workers on International Workers’ Day, Trinamool Congress National General Secretary Abhishek Banerjee on Monday stated that through Trinamoole Nabo Jowar, they aim to bring welfare to people from all sections of life and ensure their well-being.
Taking strong exception to “non-release” of MGNREGS wages, Banerjee, who has embarked upon a two-month-long Jono Sanjog Yatra (mass contact outreach) ahead of the West Bengal Panchayat polls, said, ” The BJP Government’s silence on crores of MGNREGS wages due to Bengal is deafening. ”
” People in the country are struggling to make ends meet, while PM @narendramodi is celebrating the 100th episode of Mann Ki Baat, ” he averred.
He said, ” Hon’ble CM @MamataOfficial has intimated PM @narendramodi to release MGNREGS funds, at least 5 times. Twice, she met him personally. ”
“MGNREGS funds are our constitutional right & we’ll fight for what is rightfully ours, ” Banerjee added.
“On one hand Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee is reaching out to the people with hands full of welfare benefits, on the other hand Prime Minister Narendra Modi after losing Bengal election has blocked the rightful payment owed to the workers and farmers, ” Banerjee said.
“The Trinamool Congress fights in the interests of workers and farmers. We want to establish people’s panchayats, ” he added.
” Trinamoole Nabo Jowar stands for rising above selfish interests and working in the interests of the people, ” he further said.
“Instead of engaging in divisive politics, Trinamoole Nabo Jowar stands for unifying Bengal from Cooch Behar to Kakdwip promoting communal harmony and delivering welfare benefits to people’s doorsteps, ” Banerjee stated.
On Sunday he claimed that theeTrinamool Congress will again come to the saddle in 2026 with 240 seats in West Bengal.
“The Triinamool Congress cannot be cowed down by any rebuke or threat. Trinamool will fight until its last breath, we do not believe in selling our spines, we will not bow down, ” he asserted.
“BJP sent ED & CBI teams to intimidate us but to no avail. The more notices they sent, the tougher we got, ” he averred.
