New Delhi: A day after Delhi Court awarded the dying penalty to 2008 Batla House encounter convict, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) chief JP Nadda requested Mamata Banerjee when is she quitting politics because the West Bengal CM had stated that she would give up politics if the encounter turned out to be true.

Recalling the incident, BJP’s National President stated, “The Batla House incident took place 13 years ago where the Delhi Police was fighting the terrorists. When a terrorist Ariz Khan was arrested there, Mamata didi said that this encounter is fake, if it will be true, I will leave politics.”

Nadda added, “The court has now ordered that Ariz Khan should be hanged. I ask when will you retire from politics Mamata Didi?”

BJP’s National President’s feedback got here whereas he was addressing a public assembly in West Bengal’s Kotulpur.

Earlier on Monday, a Delhi court docket had awarded the dying penalty to convict Ariz Khan for the homicide of Delhi Police Inspector Mohan Chand Sharma within the Batla House encounter case. The incident encounter occurred on September 19, 2008, in Delhi’s Jamia Nagar.

During the election rally, Nadda continued his assault on the TMC supremo and alleged that Mamata Banerjee dispensation has not carried out something for the welfare of farmers and ‘Adivasis’ in West Bengal. He claimed that after practising politics of appeasement for years, the West Bengal Chief Minister has began reciting Sanskrit slokas to say her Hindu identification.

“I am told that Mamata Banerjee is now doing Chandi Path. But in the last 10 years, you have been engaged in minority appeasement. You have stopped Saraswati Puja in the state and immersion of idols of goddess Durga,” he stated.

Meanwhile, the Bharatiya Janata Party Central Election Committee is prone to meet on Wednesday to finalise candidates names for the fifth and sixth section of the West Bengal Assembly elections 2021.

The state will witness eight-phased Assembly polls that are scheduled to start from March 27. The votes will probably be counted on May 2.
