After that, Mamata attacked the BJP and said, "BJP is playing slander by showing mountains of money. Money was found in a woman's house. I want the truth to come out. I am not in politics to enjoy. I think, giving up should be done in politics. But tell me one thing, is all the students of the school are same? There will be a difference. I do not support any injustice, I do not support corruption. I especially get a parliament pension of Rs 1 lakh for 11 years. I didn't take a penny. I am really sad today. In the behavior of several political parties. Some may make mistakes."
