CHAKDAH, 4 MAY: Addressing an election rally in Chakdah within Ranaghat parliamentary constituency, Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee unleashed a scathing attack on the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), accusing them of orchestrating the Sandeshkhali incident. Amidst fervent supporters, she questioned Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s conspicuous silence on the allegations of sexual molestation leveled against West Bengal Governor C V Ananda Bose.
Miss Banerjee minced no words as she declared, “The entire Sandeshkhali incident was preplanned. The BJP had scripted it well. The truth has been exposed. I have been saying this for a long time.”
The Sandeshkhali incident, which has been a focal point of contention between the ruling Trinamul Congress (TMC) and the BJP, saw further escalation as Miss Banerjee hurled allegations of BJP’s involvement. She lambasted PM Modi for addressing the Sandeshkhali incident but maintaining silence on the serious accusations against the governor, stating, “PM Modi gave sandesh (message) regarding Sandeshkhali but remained silent on the representative of the Centre, the governor’s sexual molestation issue.”
The molestation allegations against Governor C V Ananda Bose surfaced after a Raj Bhawan employee accused him of making inappropriate advances and discouraging her from reporting the incident. These accusations have added fuel to the already intense political battle in West Bengal.
In a twist of events, the TMC accused the BJP of hatching a conspiracy to tarnish West Bengal’s image by allegedly fabricating evidence and testimonials in the Sandeshkhali case. The release of a video purportedly suggesting BJP’s involvement has intensified the war of words between the rival parties.
Moreover, the TMC released a damning post titled “Big Expose on Sandeshkhali,” wherein it accused Opposition leader Subhendu Adhikari of concocting a narrative of mass rapes and planting guns in a house in Sandeshkhali to discredit the Bengal government.
