On the first day of the 17th Lok Sabha, Union minister of state for environment and forest Babul Supriyo took oath as Lok Sabha MP. Bharatiya Janata Party members loudly cheered with “Jai Shri Ram”.
The chant of Jai Shri Ram was a jibe at West Bengal’s ruling party Trinamool Congress and state Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee who has been embroiled in a bitter battle with the BJP over who will take control of the political landscape of West Bengal.
