West Midnapore (West Bengal) [India], June 19 (ANI): West Bengal’s Leader of Opposition and BJP leader Suvendu Adhikari, on Wednesday accused the TMC goons of seriously injuring party leader Moumita Sinha inside the West Midnapore Block Development Office.
He also said that post-poll violence is increasing in West Bengal, adding that in the last 24 hours, a BJP worker died in custody.
“Our party leader Moumita Sinha was called and beaten up in the BDO office… She is seriously injured by the TMC goons inside the Block Development Office. In front of the Block Development Officer, she was injured brutally… The post-poll violence is increasing. In the last 24 hours, a BJP worker died in custody,” he said.
Incidents of post-poll violence poured in from several pockets of West Bengal where BJP workers were allegedly beaten and their offices were vandalised, after the declaration of Lok Sabha 2024 results.
On June 13, West Bengal’s Leader of Opposition, Suvendu Adhikari, was stopped by the police from entering the Raj Bhavan to meet West Bengal Governor CV Ananda Bose with alleged victims of post-poll violence.
Adhikari had stated, “For the first time after independence, we have been stopped outside Raj Bhavan. They didn’t let the LoP enter. The Governor called in the victim with written permission. 200 victims, accompanied by LoP, had come here.”
Earlier this month, West Bengal opposition leader Suvendu Adhikari had written to Governor CV Ananda Bose, raising concerns about the All India Trinamool Congress’ alleged role in post-poll violence, urging him to take steps to prevent a recurrence of the situation after elections in 2024.
In a letter to the Governor of West Bengal, BJP leader Suvendu Adhikari said that after the 2024 Parliamentary General Election results were announced on June 4, “goons of the ruling dispensation” has gone “berserk upon the workers of BJP” in West Bengal.
“As has become synonymous now with the State of West Bengal, the goons of the ruling dispensation have gone berserk upon the workers of BJP after the declaration of results of the Parliamentary General Elections, 2024, which was announced on June 4, 2024,” Adhikari said in the letter.
“This seems to be a repeat of the incidents that transpired after the declaration of the results of the 2021 assembly election results in Bengal, which had resulted in the death of several BJP karyakartas,” he added.
Adhikari further alleged that the Central Armed Paramilitary Forces, stationed after the polls, are not being utilised to control the worsening situation where the ruling party’s goons are targeting BJP workers. (ANI)
