Moments after the CBI arrested state Sports and Transport Minister Madan Mitra in the Saradha scam, Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee slammed the ruling BJP at the Centre, Prime Minister Narendra Modi and BJP president Amit Shah, saying the arrest was “a conspiracy to destroy democracy in the country”Terming the arrest as “wrong, unconstitutional, undemocratic, unethical, destructive and illegal and an act of political vendetta”, Mamata announced a huge rally that will be held in central Kolkata on Saturday to protest against the “CBI’s political move”.

“The arrest of Madan Mitra is unconstitutional and speaks of political vendetta. The BJP has thrown a challenge and we have accepted it. Tomorrow, I am going to visit Madan at SSKM Hospital. Let Narendra Modi’s police and Amit Shah’s goondas prevent me. They are destroying democracy. They are ruining the country. The present central government is now being controlled by the RSS and it is quite evident,’’ said Banerjee.

However, CBI sources said that Mitra would not be admitted to SSKM, as doctors have said that the minister was fine. Mitra would be produced before the court on Saturday.

The Trinamool Congress, which is weighing all options on whether a privilege motion could be moved in the state Assembly on the issue, will raise the same in the Parliament too.
