In a recent assembly session, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee took a pointed jab at the BJP, suggesting that if they have such a fondness for Hawaiian slippers, they should consider opening a store. This quip was part of a broader critique of the BJP’s political conduct, particularly targeting a recent incident involving a BJP minister. Banerjee’s remarks not only highlight the ongoing political tensions but also reflect her confidence in the trinamool Congress’s position ahead of the 2026 elections.
Banerjee recounted an incident where a BJP minister allegedly threw a shoe at a Punjabi officer in Bhawanipur, questioning the political decorum of such actions. She warned that if the BJP attempts to invade her political space, the Trinamool Congress knows how to respond effectively. The Chief Minister emphasized that her personal choices-be it food or attire-are not up for judgment by the BJP, challenging their audacity to comment on her lifestyle. As she concluded, Banerjee expressed her belief that the BJP will be left with no seats in the upcoming assembly elections, asserting that the electorate is well aware of the political landscape.
