TMC will not return to power for 100 years: Bengal CM vows at Nandigram Martyrs’ Day observance

Nandigram, Nov 10 (UNI) Declaring that the Trinamool Congress had been politically wiped out in West Bengal, Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari on Tuesday asserted that the party would not return to power in the state for the next 100 years, as he paid tribute to the victims of the Nandigram land movement on the 10 November Martyrs’ Day.
“Jora Phool and Ghass Phool, both have been uprooted. You will not see the Trinamool Congress again, not even in the next 100 years,” Adhikari said, referring to the party’s election symbol and delivering a fresh political warning to his former adversaries.
The Chief Minister was speaking at Gokulnagar, where he participated in the annual memorial programme organised by the Bhumi Uchhed Pratirodh Committee (BUPC), the platform that spearheaded the anti-land acquisition movement in Nandigram.
