Centre has right to advise Mamata Banerjee to stop political killings in Bengal, says Amit Shah

 The BJP-TMC sparring over violence in West Bengal continued with Home Minister Amit Shah on Monday saying the Centre has a right to advise Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee to "immediately stop" the spate of political killings.
Rejecting TMC's charge of being selective in issuing advisories to West Bengal while ignoring Bihar and Uttar Pradesh, Shah said the advisory to the TMC-ruled state was not for local law and order situation but for political killings.
He countered TMC's Derek O'Brien on Bihar, where over 100 children died due to acute encephalitis, saying the Home Ministry does not issue health advisories.
Shah also defended BJP-ruled Uttar Pradesh saying there were no political killings in the state since his party came to power.
