The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has come out strongly against the actions of West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, following alleged attacks on BJP leaders Khagen Murmu and Shankar Ghosh. National Spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi accused the Chief Minister of neglecting law and order and prioritizing entertainment over urgent state issues.
During a press conference, Trivedi criticized Banerjee's governance, citing her focus on a Tollywood music carnival while North Bengal suffers from severe floods and landslides. He expressed concern over the increasing violence, suggesting that such actions mark a decline in democratic values.
BJP Co-incharge Amit Malviya condemned the incident on social media, describing it as 'TMC's jungle raj.' Party leaders like Sambit Patra also alleged that the TMC incited violence against BJP members working on flood relief efforts, further escalating tensions between the parties.
