West Bengal’s BJP has launched a fierce broadside against Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, alleging her fierce opposition to voter list SIR stems from a frantic desire to stage elections on a voter roll teeming with discrepancies.
State president Suvendu Adhikari, addressing the media, exposed TMC’s scheme: ‘They’re out to dismantle SIR completely, eager for polls with this defective list.’ Banerjee’s resistance, he argued, betrays ulterior motives.
The lawlessness narrative was stark: A Kolkata-adjacent councillor’s lethal assault has gone viral, but pales against 56 BJP murders and 27 women’s gang rapes post-2021, with police allegedly erasing CBI trails.
Dilip Ghosh ridiculed the CM’s Supreme Court gambit. ‘So sure of winning? Prove it in court, skip the show,’ he challenged. He critiqued the administration’s judicial flops—endless meritless appeals clogging courts, denying fair hearings and compelling public litigation.
Ghosh decried a targeted crackdown: Hindu exodus from Murshidabad to Malda amid threats; women tormented in villages; BJP events sabotaged by flag-waving officers in TMC-police synergy. ‘Democracy is under siege,’ he warned.
In this high-stakes clash, BJP champions SIR as vital for electoral purity, vowing relentless pursuit of justice. Mamata’s maneuvers, they contend, risk perpetuating chaos, but public awakening could tip the scales toward transparency and safety.
