The BJP has accused West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee of staging an indefinite anti-Special Intensive Revision (SIR) sit-in protest in Kolkata to safeguard illegal infiltrators on the state’s voters’ list. The protest, initiated by the Trinamool Congress leadership, including the Chief Minister, at Esplanade East in central Kolkata, has not specified its duration. However, based on the protest dais’s size and arrangements, it appears the demonstration will persist for some time.
Leader of the Opposition (LoP) in the West Bengal Assembly, Suvendu Adhikari, alleged that a play was performed in Mamata Banerjee’s presence at Dharmatala to support illegal infiltrators. He criticized the ruling party’s response to assistant teachers protesting the cash-for-school job case, accusing them of dismissing legitimate demands by linking them to the BJP and labeling them as agents of the opposition party and media.
Adhikari questioned the suppression of people’s right to voice legitimate demands in West Bengal, emphasizing the need for change and a BJP government. He expressed confidence that the residents of West Bengal, observing the situation, would respond appropriately to the ruling party’s actions in due time.
