Amid a war of words between the ruling TMC and the BJP over the attack on an ED team at Sandeshkhali in the North 24 Parganas district, Trinamool Congress leader Kunal Ghosh on Wednesday accused the primary opposition party in the state of misusing central agencies.
He said, "This is called 'on top of theft, showing off your chest'. All the corrupt people are distressed. Prime Minister Narendra Modiji's slogan, 'Na khaunga, Na khane dunga', is proving to be successful and the public too is supporting him on this."
As per reports, the ED was conducting raids at the residence of former Bongaon Municipality Chairman Shankar Adhya in Bangaon and TMC leader Sheikh Shahjahan's house in connection with the alleged ration scam case.

"When the BJP sends central agencies to harass TMC, Congress says big things and supports them but when their own leaders are raided, they feel bad," said Ghosh.
"What are his (PM Modi's) intentions? What is his intention behind his fashion parade, wearing make-up, taking sorties on Tejas? Tejas is not the subject. It is his wrong intention. He is deviating from the issues of 'roti-kapda-makaan' (food-clothing-house) by giving clarion calls of war,"
"They have a bad, vindictive attitude towards Bengal because they lose in Bengal. That is why they are targeting Trinamool Congress leaders to harass them. Whatever is happening against Mahua is part of the same script," Kunal Ghosh said
