Mamata Banerjee, targeting the BJP said, " Point a gun at me and I will show you the armoury".
Kolkata:
Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee -- still smarting from the "Jai Shri Ram" slogans at the Netaji birth anniversary programme -- launched a furious attack on the BJP today, accusing them of insulting all cultural icons of the state from Rabindranath Tagore to revolutionary Santhal leader Birsa Munda. Ahead of the coming elections, the Centre and the state had clashed even before the event was held. The Centre had declared the day "Parakram Diwas", denying state requests to christen it the 'Desh Nayak Diwas'.

Kolkata:
The Victoria Memorial incident, where BJP supporters shouted "Jai Shri Ram" just as Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee rose to speak on Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose's birth anniversary at an event with Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Kolkata, continued to churn politics in election-bound Bengal on Sunday.
A day after the heckling, which prompted Ms Banerjee to abandon her speech saying she was "insulted", it emerged that BJP leaders had cornered a big share of invitation cards to the Ministry of Cultural Affairs event and given them to party activists who were present in the crowd in disproportionate numbers, say sources.

Synopsis
"We do not celebrate Netaji's birthday only in the years when elections are scheduled. We are celebrating his 125th birth anniversary in a grand fashion. Rabindranath Tagore described Netaji as Deshnayak. That is why we have decided to celebrate this day as Deshnayak Diwas," she said.

"Netaji was one of the greatest freedom fighters of the country. He was a great philosopher," she said.
Before the commencement of the procession from Syambazar area in the northern part of the city, Banerjee blew a conch shell and a siren was sounded at 12.15 pm, the time when Bose was born on this day in 1897.

Netaji Subhas Bose's posthumous victory - India Today Insight News

Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose and Jawaharlal Nehru at a Congress meet
Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose is in the news this year—mainly for the fact that the start of his 125thbirth anniversary coincides with what will be a bitterly contested state election in his native state West Bengal in May. The Union government declared January 23 as ‘Parakram Divas’, or Valour Day, to commemorate his birth anniversary. Prime Minister Narendra Modi is to address a rally in Kolkata on this day. The Mamata Banerjee government, sensing a BJP attempt to appropriate another Bengali icon, has announced plans to celebrate the day as ‘Desh Nayak Diwas’. Either ways, the legacy of an iconic freedom fighter has got another lease of life.

Kolkata:
The battle for Bengal, to be fought in polling booths in a couple of months from now, is today being fought in Kolkata over the legacy of iconic freedom fighter Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose. The ruling Trinamool and the opposition BJP are locked in a bitter squabble over who better honours the legendary Netaji on his 124th birth anniversary.
On Saturday, hours before Prime Minister Narendra Modi was due in Kolkata to take part in a series of events to honour his memory, Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee attacked the centre for failing to declare the day a national holiday and build a memorial for the freedom fighter.
