I promise that after BJP comes to power, political and poll-related violence will end in Bengal," Shah told media persons here."Mamata Banerjee still has time to condole the fifth killing (Anand Burman) and apologise to the people of Bengal for her speech. She condoled only four people. She did not shed a single tear for Anand Burman because he belonged to a Rajvanshi community. He was not fit for her appeasement politics.

They could have shot on the leg or the lower body but every bullet hit them in the neck or chest area.""Why CISF has been deployed to control the public? CISF is trained specially for industrial security but not to control a mob. I could not sleep last night but the Prime Minister gave a clean chit. Such an incompetent government, incompetent Prime Minister, incompetent Home Minister," added the chief minister.Violence erupted at a polling booth in Sitalkuchi in Cooch Behar during the fourth round of assembly elections on Saturday.
