Bengal Panchayat polls: Nadda to kickstart BJP’s campaign from Nandigram
The BJP is all set to deploy its central leaders in West Bengal to campaign for the panchayat polls as well as the 2024 Lok Sabha elections in the state.
The BJP is all set to deploy its central leaders in West Bengal to campaign for the panchayat polls as well as the 2024 Lok Sabha elections in the state.
Supreme Court on Friday declined to consider a plea filed by Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Suvendu Adhikari in which he sought the transfer of West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee's petition, challenging his election from the Nandigram constituency, outside the state.
Adhikari had earlier moved the HC alleging that the Mamata Banerjee-led West Bengal government was abusing the police machinery by registering six FIRs against him in four different police stations.
Miss Banerjee's counsel Sanjay Bose said they sought an order striking down the election of Nandigram Assembly.
On the questions of Singur and Nandigram, instead of apologising for them, and forgetting that they were instrumental for the CPM's defeat in 2011, the new narrative was that Buddhadeb Bhattacharya's actions were essentially sound, though there were some mistakes. They even forgot to mention that they were not mistakes but blunders.
TMC leader and MP Derek O'Brien has written to the Election Commission (EC) alleging booth capture by BJP workers in Nandigram.
“After reaching here (Nandigram), I got a sad piece of news. A woman was raped within a 5-km radius where Mamata Banerjee is staying,” Shah said during his interaction with reporters at the BJP office in Nandigram.
All eyes set on Nandigram where Mamata Banerjee takes on her protege-turned-rival Suvendu Adhikari
Miss Banerjee, who claims to be the trailblazer of anti-land acquisition movement and stirs those wounds to gain votes today said the “baap-beta” (father-son duo)- Sisir and Suvendu Adhikariwere responsible for the atrocities against the villagers on that fateful day.
After meeting the CEO, Vijayvargiya said they had met the state’s chief electoral officer and handed over the tape. He also claimed Banerjee was using her official position to influence the outcome of the bitterly-contested Assembly poll.
