Mamata accuses BSF of allowing infiltration to destabilise Bengal

CALLS IT CENTRE'S 'NEFARIOUS BLUEPRINT'

Accusing the Border Security Force (BSF) of allowing infiltration from Bangladesh with the objective of destabilising the state, Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee called it a "nefarious blueprint" of the Centre.

While chairing an administrative meeting at Nabanna Sabhaghar on Thursday, Banerjee, who is also the Trinamool Congress (TMC) chairperson, said: "The border is guarded by BSF and not Trinamool Congress. They are sending goons and murderers across the border. Women are being tortured. The border is not in our hands. If someone accuses the TMC of permitting infiltration, I will point out that it is BSF's responsibility. This is part of a blueprint by the Central government for disturbing the peace in Bengal. Insiders in BSF are involved."
