Agartala, Feb 10: Congress spokesperson Supriya Shrinate Slams BJP by calling it a ‘Panauti’ for the country. While talking to NorthEast Rising, she said that “Today the biggest problem of this country is that BJP has become the biggest ‘PANAUTI’ and Tripura bears its brunt, I don’t think there is any contradiction in this, there is any irony, this is the demand of democracy and the demand of democracy will be met.”
Asked about the challenges for the congress, she stated that “BJP is the biggest challenge of this country, it is country’s bad luck that such a party is in power when it comes down due to inflation, unemployment, economic disparity, atrocities against women, they don’t utter a single word. So this country has made up its mind to make an end to this ‘Panauti’.”
