post-election war of words

TMC leader Babul Supriyo has won the by-election from the Ballygunge assembly seat of West Bengal with a huge margin of votes, but in the joy of victory, one of his comments has overshadowed him. CPM candidate Saira Shah Haleem, who came second in this seat on his ‘no class’ remark, hit back strongly. He has said that he and his party “believe in a classless society”. In fact, when the election results of this seat went in favor of Babul Supriyo on Saturday, he attacked Haleem by accusing him of running a ‘dirty’ campaign. He had said that “will continue to ignore him” and that “the dirty propaganda of his party has been rejected by a large majority”.

Rar on Babylon’s ‘no class’ remark

Babul Supriyo had tweeted after his victory that ‘Even after a dirty and condemnable campaign full of lies and deceit, West Bengal CPM and Saira Shah Haleem did not show any class, leave no shame. People have thrown out CPM in favor of TMC, still they are speaking the same dirty language. That is why his party has a huge zero in the assembly. He had taken a jibe at the CPM’s disgraceful performance in last year’s assembly elections. In fact, the CPM candidate had described his party’s moral victory as coming second in the election results. Babylon had even said on this that ‘there is no decency to accept defeat’.

‘We believe in a classless society’

But, even though she had to face defeat in the election, Saira Shah has strongly counterattacked the TMC MLA through Twitter. ‘We believe in a classless society, where the poor and the rich are not segregated on the basis of the wealth and wealth they have. Whoever judges me on the basis of ‘no class’ knows what he is fighting against.
