Charging that West Bengal has become a "jihadi hub" under Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, BJP today decided to send a three-member team to the state to look into the abduction of a teenaged girl, alleging that the accused are being patronised by a the ruling party.

The party also sought to dispel impression of the BJP-led Centre and the state's TMC government coming closer, saying the two parties can never be together and it will oppose the regional party "tooth and nail".

Party secretary Siddharth Nath Singh told reporters that recent incidents, including abduction of young girls, terror activities and money laundering, "prove that the state has become a jihadi hub".
