Anil Vij attacks Mamata Banerjee, says Constitution also provides for removal of those unwilling to resign
Chandigarh, 07 May 2026
Haryana’s Energy, Transport and Labour Minister Sh. Anil Vij once again strongly criticized Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann over his remarks regarding the bomb blasts in Punjab. Sh. Vij said that “This irresponsible statement by the Punjab Chief Minister, who works under the influence of alcohol, shows that Bhagwant Mann is completely intoxicated with both power and alcohol. He should resign from his post for making such irresponsible remarks.”
He further commented on the murder of the personal assistant of senior BJP leader Suvendu Adhikari in West Bengal, saying that Union Home Minister Amit Shah would “put an end to goondaraj and restore peace in the state.”
Sh.Vij was responding to questions from media persons regarding Bhagwant Mann’s statement alleging BJP’s involvement in the bomb blasts in Punjab.
“Bhagwant Mann should resign for making irresponsible statements” – Vij
He said that Bhagwant Mann is not only the Chief Minister but also the Home Minister of Punjab, and if he is alleging BJP’s involvement, he must prove it. Sh. Vij asserted that if Mann fails to substantiate his claims, he should resign from his position for making irresponsible statements.
“People of Bengal ended goondaraj on May 4” – Vij
Responding to a question regarding the killing of Suvendu Adhikari’s PA in West Bengal, Sh. Vij said that the people of Bengal had already voted against “goondaraj” on May 4. He claimed that the public had rejected such politics and that individuals associated with that “goondaraj” were now creating unrest in the state.
“Amit Shah will eliminate the fear of goondaraj in Bengal” – Vij
The minister said that “We had said that this was the first election in Bengal in which no one died, but even after the elections such incidents are being seen.” He added that there was no need to worry because Home Minister Amit Shah had dealt with such elements before and would restore peace in Bengal.
*“The Constitution provides ways to remove leaders who refuse to resign” – Vij*
Replying to a question regarding Mamata Banerjee not stepping down from the Chief Minister’s post, Sh. Vij said that democracy demands acceptance of defeat. He added that the framers of the Constitution had anticipated situations where politicians might refuse to resign, and therefore constitutional provisions already exist for their removal.
“Mamata Banerjee keeps creating unnecessary hurdles” – Vij
Taking a swipe at Mamata Banerjee, Sh. Vij said that everyone knows she tends to create obstacles in every matter. He stated that during her tenure she continued to create disruptions and is still doing so unnecessarily, whereas everyone should function according to the law. He added that approaching the courts is everyone’s constitutional right and there is no objection to that.
“Operation Sindoor taught Pakistan a lesson” – Vij
Speaking on the anniversary of “Operation Sindoor,” Sh. Vij said that the day symbolizes national pride, patriotism, and India’s strength and resolve. He remarked that earlier governments would merely offer condolences after terror attacks, but Prime Minister Narendra Modi changed that approach by adopting a strong stance against terrorism. He said that “Operation Sindoor taught Pakistan such a lesson that it may not dare to raise its head for centuries. The message is clear—no one should dare look towards India with hostile intent.”
*“If you want to live in India, you must sing Vande Mataram” – Vij*
Responding to AIMIM leader Waris Pathan’s controversial remarks on “Vande Mataram,” Sh.Vij said that “Vande Mataram” is India’s national song and deserves the same respect as the national anthem. He stated that insulting the national song should invite the same punishment as insulting the national anthem. Sh.Vij added that“If you want to live in India, you will have to say Vande Mataram.”
