In her remarks, Mamata Banerjee contrasted her government’s approach with that of the central government, particularly mocking Prime Minister Modi’s promises as mere empty rhetoric. She emphasized that while her government fulfills its guarantees, those from Delhi often fall short, likening them to gas balloons that deflate after elections.
