BJP today targeted the Left and Trinamool Congress over posters in Jadavpur University in Kolkata demanding "freedom" for Kashmir and raising of slogans in favour of parliament attack convict Afzal Guru, alleging the Leftist ideology promotes treason and questioning the TMC government's "silence."

"The Leftist ideology somewhere promotes treason that leads to anti-national thinking and BJP will continue to oppose such an ideology.

"BJP questions the TMC's silence because it is the ruling party in West Bengal. We wish to know if their leaders can go to Hyderabad (university) why they are keeping away from JNU? And there is no action in Jadavpur University case. TMC is nothing but a mirror image of the Left," BJP National Secretary Sidharth Nath Singh said.
 

Singh is also the party's co-incharge for the state which is likely to go to assembly polls in April-May.

A day after pro-Afzal Guru slogans were raised in Jadavpur University (JU), posters demanding 'freedom' for Kashmir, Manipur and Nagaland were found in the campus.
