BJP president Rajnath Singh made subtle overtures to the TMC supremo by sympathising with her demand for a bailout package for debt-ridden West Bengal and said the UPA government should have given a moratorium on loan repayment to the Centre.
“Bailout package should have been given to West Bengal in the interest of its people on the lines of a package given to Greece by the European Union to tide over its economic crisis,” he said.
Noting that the previous Left Front government had left the state with a huge debt burden of over Rs two lakh crores, Singh said, “The UPA government should have given a three-year moratorium to the state government as had been sought by Banerjee.”
Stating that regional imbalance has been created under the Congress rule, Singh said, “But I want to assure that under Modi there won't be any discrimination, whether it is east, west, north or south.”
