Kolkata, Jan 7: The Birbhum district police Monday lodged an FIR against BJP Mahila Morcha president Locket Chatterjee and a local leader of the district for their alleged comment to beat up police personnel in the state.

A senior leader of BJP Birbhum district unit Kalosona Mondal Sunday while addressing a "Ganatantra Bachao Rally" (Save Democracy Rally) criticised the police for acting as cadres of TMC in the state and urged party cadres to "beat up" police personnel.

"I am asking you to go and attack the police, I promise you won't be harmed TMC isnt your opponent, the police is your main opponent," Mondal said while addressing the rally there.

The comments were made in the presence of BJP state Mahila Morcha chief Locket Chatterjee, who too asked party cadres to "take up arms to fight against the misrule of TMC in Bengal".

"You all should take up arms to fight against the misrule of TMC in Bengal. If you are scared about what administration will do, you will never be able to achieve anything," Chatterjee said.

When contacted, Birbhum District Police Superintendent Shyam Singh said the police have taken suo mutu cognizance and have filed FIR against Mondal and Chatterjee under non bailable sections.

Mondal, however, remained defiant and said he is not sorry for his comments.

Reacting to the comments made by the BJP leaders, senior TMC leader and minister Partha Chatterjee said the saffron party is known for making such comments as they have "neither any respect for law nor constitution".

Thiruvananthapuram, Aug 6 : Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan has said that Congress is known for adopting a soft Hindutva agenda and that there was nothing new in the remarks of Priyanka Gandhi Vadra and Rahul Gandhi on Ayodhya temple construction.

"I am not surprised regarding, Priyanka Gandhi's remark on Ayodhya. From Rajiv Gandhi and Narasimha Rao, Congress had followed a similar stance. I don't think Congress has any stand when it comes to secularism. 

If it was the case, then our country would not have reached such a level," the chief minister said when asked about the 'Bhumi Pujan' ceremony at the Ram temple in Ayodhya on Wednesday.

"There is nothing new on Rahul Gandhi or Priyanka Gandhi's position on the issue. They are following the Congress' soft Hindutva agenda. There is no element of surprise," Vijayan said.

Further, Vijayan said that CPI(M) Politburo had made clear the party's viewpoint on the Ayodhya temple construction.

"When it comes to Ayodhya issue. I want to ask who had allowed worship there. It was Congress. Who had allowed to lay the idol there? It was Congress. 

Who gave permission to Karseva? It was Congress. Even when it came to demolition of Babri Masjid too who shut their eyes and gave a silent nod for it- wasn't it the Congress regime at the centre? And Muslim League (IUML) was part of it. These are all part of our history," said Kerala Chief Minister.

He said instead of involving in discussions on it, more time should be utilised towards containing the COVID-19 spread in the country and helping the poor who are suffering due to the pandemic.
