Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma accused the TMC of making false claims that the BJP would stop consumption of meat and fish if it wins the assembly polls in West Bengal.
Addressing a poll rally, Sarma asserted that one can eat as much non-vegetarian food as one wants in saffron party-ruled Assam, with the only restriction being on beef consumption.
Sarma claimed that the TMC wants cattle smuggling to Bangladesh to continue, so they can fill their pockets, and that West Bengal requires a government capable of providing proper treatment to Bangladeshi immigrants.
Elections to the 294-member West Bengal assembly will be held in two phases - on April 23 and April 29, with votes to be counted on May 4.
