Speaking at a press conference, Banerjee dared Modi to hold elections immediately, asserting that Bengal is ready to face the challenge.
Banerjee’s Criticism of Operation Sindoor
Banerjee alleged that the Centre named Operation Sindoor to gain political mileage ahead of elections. She accused Modi of equating Bengal with terrorism, questioning why the terrorists behind the Pahalgam attack had not yet been arrested.
