The Trinamool Vs BJP over alleged audio tape of Mamata Banerjee has taken an uglier turn. With the PM refering to the alleged audio tape, the Trinamool is asking if even the chief minister of a state is under surveillance? The party has accused the BJP of tapping Mamata's phone. The BJP had on Friday released an audio tape of a conversation purportedly between CM Mamata Banerjee and Trinamool Sitalkuchi candidate Partha Pratim Ray that, the BJP claimed, occurred in the immediate aftermath of last Saturday&rsquo;s CISF firing in which four people were killed. The tape has the female voice asking &ldquo;Partha&rdquo; to &ldquo;keep the bodies so that the party could hold a rally with the dead&rdquo;. It is then heard asking &ldquo;the Trinamool candidate&rdquo; &ldquo;to tell the families not to take the bodies home&rdquo;.

She pointed out to the overwhelmed medical infrastructure and shortage of vaccines and drugs to treat Covid-19. Sonia Gandhi was speaking during the meeting of the Congress Working Committee, which was attended by former party chief Rahul Gandhi, general secretaries and state in-charges of the party. &ldquo;Instead of listening to the constructive suggestions of the opposition, Union Ministers are pressed into service to attack leaders of opposition for giving those suggestions.

Mumbai Mayor Kishori Pednekar on Saturday suggested a complete lockdown should be imposed in Mumbai amid a worrying spike in Covid cases.
