He also criticised the Centre's silence over the State Government's appeal to subsidise essential food commodities for sale through public distribution system saying that the government at the Centre was only for the rich.
Addressing a rally organised by the Communist Party of India (Marxist) at Basirhat in the State's North 24 Parganas district, Mr. Bhattacharjee accused the Trinamool Congress of protesting against and obstructing every other development project initiated by the State Government and asserted that only the “red flag” can bring about development in the State and work for the poor.
Speaking on the State's industrialisation drive, he said: “Just because they (Trinamool Congress) could stop setting up industry at Singur, they cannot stop us in every project. They are now protesting against the land acquisition for Rajarhat township near Kolkata…I want to tell them that the State Government will demolish all such obstacles to the State's progress.”
Taking a dig at the slogan of “change” popularised by the Trinamool Congress, Mr. Bhattacharjee wondered if it means giving back land from the poor to the landlords or doing away with the panchayat system that the Left Front had established.
“The two zilla parishads run by the Trinamool Congress have scored highest in corruption and even funds allotted for Aila victims have been swindled by them. A false propaganda by the party that the State Government will forcibly acquire land from the minority population is baseless,” he said.
Alleging that the Trinamool Congress is creating unrest in colleges and lawlessness in the State, Mr. Bhattacharjee reiterated that it has joined hands with the Maoists in Paschim Medinipur district to kill CPI (M) leaders and supporters.
