Mamata Banerjee addressed a press conference on Tuesday (5 May). Even after the defeat, he refused to resign from the post of Chief Minister. On this, Asaduddin Owaisi’s party AIMIM spokesperson Waris Pathan has reacted.
Waris Pathan said, “Elections are a part of democracy. The Constitution has given the biggest right to the people, the voting right. Every person uses his voting right. This is the mandate of the people. Whoever the public likes, they bring to power, those whom the public does not like, they do not vote. My personal opinion is that because this is the mandate, everything should happen happily. One should accept defeat as well as victory.”
If you lose today, you will win tomorrow – Waris Pathan
I congratulate those who have won, but I would tell those who have lost to introspect as to what was the reason for this defeat. If you lose today, you will win tomorrow. This is the way of life, victory comes only after defeat. We had 11 candidates in Bengal, their performance was quite good. If you lose, you will introspect. We are sure that we will perform very well there in the coming days.
The country will run on the Constitution – Waris Pathan
He further said, “The country will be run by the Constitution. Everyone should follow the rules. I am neither a supporter of Mamta Didi nor anyone else. Three-time Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee is alleging that she was brutalized in this way, she was kicked. This is the government, administration, Election Commission, all the people should take cognizance and whatever appropriate action is taken.
Everything is in front of the public – Waris Pathan
When he was asked that Rahul Gandhi had said that seats have been stolen and this is a complete conspiracy to abolish the Constitution, Waris Pathan said, “This Aghadi that has been formed, they come together at some places, fight in front at some places, and then talk like this.” The entire public saw who went to fight against Mamata Banerjee in Bengal. Let’s call us the B team. Everything is in front of the public and they have become wise. Let us tell you that in West Bengal, BJP has won a grand 207 seats while Mamata Banerjee’s TMC was limited to 80 seats.
