Mithun Chakraborty Criticizes Mamata Banerjee Amidst Political Tensions in Bengal

BJP leader Mithun Chakraborty has openly criticized West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, labeling her claims of harassment against Bengali-speaking migrant workers as unfounded and politically driven.

Chakraborty accused Banerjee and the TMC of attempting to impede the Election Commission's special intensive revision to maintain their voter base by retaining 'non-genuine voters.'

As the 2026 Assembly elections approach, tensions rise as both TMC and BJP prepare for a critical political showdown, with Chakraborty urging BJP workers to collaborate with the EC in purging illegal voter entries.
