Siliguri, Apr 3 (UNI) ' After Balakot, the pain should have been in Islamabad and Rawalpindi. But didi (Mamata Banerjee) was in pain here in Kolkata, ' said Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday and charged the Chief Minister with acting as the 'speed-breaker' in the development path of Bengal.

' All these Mahamilawati cried so much that they became heroes in Pakistan, what kind of India do they want? In Delhi, when the UPA remote-controlled government was in power, terrorists attack used to happen more often than not, ' he commented.

Modi said, ' After Balakot, the pain should have been in Islamabad and Rawalpindi. But didi was in pain here in Kolkata. '

“ The NDA Government started the Ayushman Bharat scheme for the poor in the country, but didi is a speed-breaker in the path of the state's development. ”

' She has put a break on the uplift of over 70 lakh farmer families of the state, ' the Prime Minister asserted.

Stating that the Saradha chit fund scam had looted the people of Bengal, Modi said, ' Didi put a break on the PM Kisan Samman Yojana in West Bengal. '

The PM said, ' Yesterday the Congress party released its manifesto but spoke about the withdrawal of AFSPA. Don't they trust their own Army? '

'Mamata Banerjee doesn’t worry about the poor. How can she work, after all she has to do politics over the poor. If poverty is eradicated, her politics will also finish, ” he averred.

Modi said, “ On the one hand is your chowkidar, on the other hand are ‘daagdaar' .Your chaiwala is completely dedicated to the workers of tea estates."
