"I think as a CM, should not react...particularly of certain people": Assam CM Sarma against Mahua Moitra's reported remark on HM Shah - World News Network

Guwahati (Assam) [India], August 30 (ANI): Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Saturday chose not to react to TMC MP Mahua Moitra’s reported remark about Union Home Minister Amit Shah, stating that responding wouldn’t benefit the country.
After viewing the video of Moitra’s comment, Sarma asserted that the video itself reflects her mindset, rendering further discussion unnecessary.
“I think as a CM, I should not react to all the statements, particularly of certain people. This doesn’t benefit the country in any manner. I saw that video yesterday; that video itself is the answer to her mindset. There is no use in speaking anything on it,” CM Sarma said while addressing a press conference.
Earlier today, Assam Assembly Deputy Speaker and BJP leader Numal Momin strongly condemned TMC MP Mahua Moitra’s reported remarks and called for “exemplary action” against her.
Momin said she belongs to an “uncultured, pro-Rohingya and pro-Bangladeshi Muslim infiltrator party” and accused their party of “destroying” the Bhartiya culture.
Speaking to ANI, the Assam Assembly Deputy Speaker said, “We cannot expect more than this from Mahua Moitra. She belongs to an uncultured, pro-Rohingya and pro-Bangladeshi Muslim infiltrator party. Their party is destroying the Bhartiya culture. Their main agenda is to make West Bengal an Islamic state…The way she gave the statement against Amit Shah is very shameful. I strongly condemn her statement…Mahua Moitra should respect the chair…”
Momin further demanded stern action against the TMC MP so that no other MP from their party would “dare” to give such comments in future.
The BJP leader said, “A case should be registered against her immediately, and she should be booked under the provisions of the law of the land…Trinamool Congress and its members are afraid that this time they will be thrown out of West Bengal. Such types of comments will lead to the destruction of Trinamool Congress in West Bengal.. Trinamool Congress gave a holiday and helped muslim people for Muharram. At the same time, they banned the procession during Durga Puja.”
“Trinamool Congress leader Mamata Banerjee and her disciples like Mahua Moitra are against Hindus…They want the Rohingya and Bangladeshi Muslims to infiltrate West Bengal. These people help Mamata Banerjee come into power again and again…An exemplary action should be taken against her so that no other Trinamool Congress MP will dare to give such comments in the future,” he added.
TMC MP Mahua Moitra has reportedly said Union Home Minister Amit Shah’s “head should be cut off” for failing to check the infiltration of illegal Bangladeshis into India. (ANI)
