“If they can prove it, I will leave politics. While they are asking for papers from others to prove their citizenship, why can’t they produce papers to prove that they released the money to Bengal? Show us the transaction or notification details of the funds released in the past three years. All other states apart from Bengal have received MGNREGA funds,” he said.Claiming that “Modi ki guarantee” has “zero warranty”, Banerjee on Sunday labelled BJP leaders as “anti-Bengal”, who only visit the state during elections.”Nowadays, people are talking about the so-called Modi Ki Guarantee. I can show a video to prove how much they lie. Modi ji’s guarantee has zero warranty whereas we keep our promises. The prime minister and the BJP talk of guarantee and warranty, but how can the people ‘who don’t stay in Bengal’ give any guarantee or warranty? After votes, they will not visit the state,” he said.The withholding of West Bengal’s MGNREGA dues by the Centre has been a focal point in the state’s political discourse for the past year.The West Bengal government commenced the payment of dues to approximately 30 lakh MGNREGA workers on Monday, amounting to Rs 2,700 crore, pending since March 2022.
