'... and it was 240': Trinamool MP Kalyan Banerjee mocks BJP's '400-paar' claims | Watch Video

A video of Trinamool Congress (TMC) MP Kalyan Banerjee mocking the Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) poll slogan ‘abki baar 400 paar’ in the Lok Sabha went viral on Tuesday, July 2. Banerjee ridiculed the slogan, saying, “They played the game with ‘abki baar 400 paar.’ There are many games, and chu-kit-kit is one of them.” He explained that the slogan ‘400’ resonated loudly with ‘chu’ and ended with ‘kit-kit.’ He pointed out that despite their slogan, the BJP only won 240 seats and still lost the game. Chu-kit-kit, a game popular among children in West Bengal and often considered a modified version of Hopscotch, involves drawing nine squares inside a large triangle. Players must strike a stone with their foot while ensuring their other leg does not touch the ground. Banerjee's comparison of the BJP's electoral performance to this children's game was intended to highlight their shortfall in achieving their ambitious goal. #TrinamoolCongress #KalyanBanerjeeKitKitJibe #KalyanBanerjeeViralVideo #KalyanBanerjeeHilariousJibe #KlayanBanerjeeMocksBJP #KalyanBanerjee400PaarJibe #KalyanBanerjee #BJP #400Paar #LokSabha #Mockery #PoliticalSatire #ViralVideo #ChuKitKit #WestBengal #TMC #PollSlogan #IndianPolitics #Election2024 #PoliticalHumor ~PR.152~ED.101~HT.334~
