Separatist groups stoking violence, says Buddhadeb
Staff Reporter
KOLKATA: West Bengal Chief Minister Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee said on Monday that the various separatist groups were aiming to disturb “peace and harmony” in the State by stoking violence and terror.
Pointing out to the agitations at Paschim Medinipur, Darjeeling and Jalpaiguri districts, Mr. Bhattacharjee said: “If every other ethnic group starts demanding a State of their own, democracy in West Bengal be in peril.”
He addressed an election rally in Howrah organised by the district’s Left Front committee in support of its candidates for the forthcoming polls to the Howrah Municipal Corporation.
“The tribal people in Paschim Medinipur district are being misled by the Maoists. But I thank a large section of them for having understood the reality and for detaching themselves from the movement,” he said.
Mr. Bhattacharjee, however, added: “The Maoists will not sit idle.”
