West Bengal chief of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Dilip Ghosh courted controversy yet again when he said on Monday that if he started on a murder spree, entire clan could be wiped out. He was speaking at a public meeting in Mecheda of East Midnapore district.<\/p>\n
\u201cGo and kill Trinamool Congress leaders and the police. Just kill them. The responsibility is mine,\u201d Ghosh said. \u201cIf former Union minister P Chidambaram can go to jail, then there\u2019s no question of Trinamool Congress and police getting away,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Ghosh said that thousands of false cases were being slapped on the BJP leaders and workers. These included trading with banned items, murder and rape charges. Some cases had been filed against him as well, Ghosh said. \u201cA number of cases have been filed against me. Apparently, I have committed murder,\u201d he said. \u201cBut I have not killed yet. You will know the day I start on a murder spree. If I start to kill, then a whole clan can be wiped out,\u201d he warned.<\/p>\n
Ghosh\u2019s comments have been criticised by both Trinamool Congress and the CPI(M).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
