BJP general secretary Kailash Vijayvargiya says FIR must be lodged against Mamata for raising ‘doubts’ over airstrikes

Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) general secretary Kailash Vijayvargiya has stated that a first information report (FIR) must be filed against West Bengal chief minister for what he said were “pro-Pakistan” remarks.

Questioning the stance of the chief minister for raising “doubts” over the air strikes conducted by the Indian Air Force (IAF) at Balakot in Pakistan to decimate terrorist cells there following the Pulwama terror strike in which over 40 CRPF personnel were killed, Vijayvargiya described her comments to be ‘pro-Pakistan’.

Stating that it was ‘saddening’ to hear that the West Bengal chief minister was seeking “proof” of the air attacks carried out by the IAF, he said such people needed to be “taught a lesson in the upcoming polls”.

Banerjee on Thursday said that the details of the air strike in Pakistan’s Balakot should be made public. “We have the right to know how many people died in the air strike and who they were. What was the actual incident? We have not received any detail. We love the nation, but we don’t like to see people play politics over bodies of our jawans,” the chief minister told journalists at the state administrative headquarters on Thursday.
