BJP Workers Beaten by TMC Workers at Meet, I was also Attacked Today: WB BJP Chief
The political scenario in West Bengal has taken a violent turn, with the ruling Trinamool Congress (TMC) and the opposition Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) engaging in a bitter confrontation. The latest incident has left many shocked, with the West Bengal BJP President, Sukanta Majumdar, claiming that TMC workers brutally attacked and abducted BJP workers during an all-party meet on Wednesday. The horror didn’t end there, as Majumdar himself was attacked with shoes and stones when he visited Budge Budge to meet the injured party workers on Thursday.
This incident has raised serious concerns about the safety and security of political workers in the state. The BJP has accused the TMC of perpetuating violence against its workers, while the ruling party has denied any involvement. However, the fact remains that several BJP workers were injured in the attack, and the state’s political climate is becoming increasingly volatile.
According to reports, the all-party meet was organized by the West Bengal government to discuss the upcoming panchayat elections. However, things took a turn for the worse when TMC workers allegedly abducted and beat up several BJP workers, including the party’s district president, Suresh Chandra Panja. The victims were reportedly taken to a nearby TMC office, where they were subjected to physical abuse and humiliation.
Sukanta Majumdar, the West Bengal BJP President, spoke to the media about the incident, saying that the TMC workers were armed with sticks and iron rods, and that they even blocked the roads to prevent the BJP workers from escaping. “This is not the first time that TMC workers have resorted to violence against our workers. We have been facing this kind of oppression for a long time,” Majumdar said.
However, the BJP leader’s own visit to Budge Budge to meet the injured party workers took a dramatic turn when he was attacked with shoes and stones. According to eyewitnesses, Majumdar was at the Budge Budge hospital when a group of TMC workers, armed with stones and shoes, suddenly appeared and started pelting him with objects. The BJP leader was reportedly unhurt, but the incident has left many concerned about the safety of political workers in the state.
The TMC, however, has denied any involvement in the attacks, and has accused the BJP of trying to create a controversy to gain political mileage. “We have no connection with any violence or attack on anyone. The BJP is trying to create a false narrative to distract the people from their own failures,” said a TMC spokesperson.
The incident has sparked widespread outrage, with many condemning the violence and calling for the state government to take immediate action to ensure the safety of all political workers. The BJP has demanded that the government take strict action against the TMC workers involved in the attacks, and has also sought the intervention of the Home Ministry to address the situation.
Union Minister and West Bengal BJP President Sukanta Majumdar has also expressed his willingness to inform the Home Ministry about the situation. “I will inform the Home Ministry about this entire situation. This kind of violence is unacceptable and the Centre must take note of it,” Majumdar said.
The incident is a stark reminder of the growing political polarization in West Bengal, with the TMC and the BJP locked in a bitter battle for power. While the BJP has been gaining ground in recent years, the TMC has been accused of using violence and intimidation to crush opposition to its rule.
As the situation in West Bengal continues to deteriorate, it is essential for the state government to take immediate action to ensure the safety and security of all political workers. The Centre must also intervene to address the situation and ensure that the rule of law is upheld in the state.
In conclusion, the incident is a grave concern for the people of West Bengal and the political parties in the state. It is essential that the state government and the Centre take immediate action to address the situation and ensure that political workers are safe from violence and intimidation.
