West Bengal : BJP MP and MLA attacked by a violent mob !

  • Both hospitalised and undergoing treatment

  • Assault took place while they were helping flood victims

Malda (Bengal) – BJP MLA Shankar Ghosh and MP Khagen Murmu were seriously injured when a mob attacked them while they were distributing aid to flood-affected people in Nagarakata. Murmu suffered a severe head injury and was bleeding heavily. The mob also vandalised their vehicle. Both leaders were rushed to a nearby hospital for treatment. BJP has alleged that the attack was orchestrated by Trinamool Congress (TMC) workers.

Bangladeshi Muslims attacked at TMC’s behest – Union Minister

Reacting to the incident, Union Minister and BJP leader Sukanta Majumdar said,

“The attack on our MP, MLA, and state leaders shows that democracy no longer exists in West Bengal. Even in times of disaster, TMC continues to play politics. The party instigated Bangladeshi infiltrators and local Muslims to attack our representatives. Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has created a dangerous situation in the state. I believe this assault was part of a pre-planned conspiracy, fully known to Mamata Banerjee. TMC’s very existence in North Bengal is now under threat.”

While the state was drowning, Mamata Banerjee was dancing at a ‘Carnival’ – Opposition Leader Suvendu Adhikari

Leader of the Opposition Suvendu Adhikari said,

“While North Bengal was reeling under floods and landslides, Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee was busy dancing with celebrities at the Kolkata Carnival. Her inhumane indifference has angered the people. It was at her instigation that Muslim goons attacked our MPs and MLAs, preventing them from reaching flood victims.”

Editorial Perspective

Until the current Bengal government is dissolved, anyone opposing it will face the same fate. Time and again, it becomes evident that those claiming to protect democracy are, in fact, its destroyers.
