NEW DELHI: The Trinamool Congress government of West Bengal had no respect for the constitutional office, PM Narendra Modi said Saturday, bristling at the state administration after President Droupadi Murmu expressed disappointment over the reception given to her and the manner in which a tribal community event she attended was organised.”This is shameful and unprecedented. Everyone who believes in democracy and the empowerment of tribal communities is disheartened,” PM said, reacting to Murmu’s comments posted on X.In her comments, President Murmu noted that the venue of the event was changed to a place that made it difficult for tribal people to attend it and that she was also not accorded due protocol on her arrival. The PM said, “The pain and anguish expressed by Rashtrapati Ji, who herself hails from a tribal community, has caused immense sadness in the minds of the people of India.

The TMC Government of West Bengal has truly crossed all limits. Their administration is responsible for this insult to the President.”Modi said it is equally unfortunate that a subject as important as Santal culture is treated so casually by the West Bengal govt. CM Mamata Banerjee, on her part, alleged that BJP was using Murmu for politics ahead of the assembly elections in the state.
