TMC counters PM Modi's criticism with five questions, accuses Centre of deflecting from its failures

The Trinamool Congress (TMC) on Thursday hit back at Prime Minister Narendra Modi's criticism of the West Bengal government, accusing him of deflecting attention from the BJP-led central government's shortcomings.

In a post on social media platform X, the party posed five "counter-questions" in response to Modi's remarks about crises allegedly gripping the state.

The TMC, challenging Modi to address ongoing issues in other parts of the country, particularly the prolonged unrest in Manipur wrote on its official X handle, "Before pointing fingers at Bengal, fix the mess in Manipur."

Responding to Modi’s listing of five key problems in West Bengal, the TMC wrote, "Let's talk facts," and proceeded to turn each of the Prime Minister's allegations back on the BJP.
