ALIGARH: Amit Shah Issuing a warning to West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee over her attempts to stop the BJP workers and leaders from entering into the state. BJP President Amit Shah on Wednesday said that Mamata will have to face consequences of her actions. While addressing a rally in Aligarh, the BJP chief said that Mamata is nervous over BJP's rising popularity in the state and this is the only reason why she does not want the BJP leaders to enter West Bengal.

Shah was quoted as saying "But she does not know that we are BJP workers and we will not rest until we ensure that the lotus blooms in 23 of the 42 seats in West Bengal," the BJP president further added that "Yesterday (Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister) Yogiji (Adityanath) was not allowed to enter by air, my chopper was not allowed to land. The same is happening with Shivraj Singh Chouhan who is there today. The Prime Minister was allotted a smaller ground and the permission was given late at night. All this shows that she understands that her time is up and the BJP was going to win handsomely in the Lok Sabha election," .
