KOLKATA: In a surprising development, Kabir Suman said that the Burdwan blast is only a BJP ploy to destabilize the state government.

Speaking at a discussion — ‘We don’t want politics of hatred but of harmony’, Suman, a critic of the Mamata Banerjee government, said, “I have worked as a journalist for quiet a long time and I can smell something wrong. This is a ploy of BJP to destabilize the Mamata Banerjee government.”

When asked whether Mamata is made a target because she is the most prominent anti-Modi face in the country, Suman picked up ‘Nur Nari Kkaye Da’ and said, “This is the book of alphabets in Urdu and this is being projected as a terrorist handbook. What does that indicate? There is somebody behind the entire thing. It is surprising that suddenly bombs started to explode in the state. There might be some elements but it is definite that BJP is banking on that”.
