\"\"Murshidabad: West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has criticized the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party in India for spreading a \u201cheavily loaded communal virus in the country\u201d, and urged New Delhi to deliver justice to families affected by the Pahalgam attack, rather than indulging in \u201cnasty and dirty politics\u201d.<\/p>\n

According to Kashmir Media Service, visiting the riot-hit Murshidabad district for the first time since communal clashes broke out in April, Banerjee said that the BJP was \u201cshielding\u201d those responsible for the violence and \u201cpreventing\u201d the affected families from meeting her.<\/p>\n

Banerjee also levelled charges against the Border Security Force, claiming, \u201cWhy did the BSF fire shots? If BSF hadn\u2019t fired shots, the incident would not have flared up the next day.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThose who are inciting riots are enemies of Bengal,\u201d she said, addressing the media.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want peace, not riots. West Bengal is known for its communal harmony, and we will protect that at any cost. I want to ask them (BJP), why is this heavily loaded virus being spread to create communal tension and sell the country?\u201d she asked.<\/p>\n

Banerjee hit out at New Delhi, accusing it of \u201cencouraging communal tension instead of securing the nation.\u201d<\/p>\n

Without naming Indian Home Minister Amit Shah, Banerjee termed him an \u201cacting prime minister.\u201d<\/p>\n
