New Delhi: A disturbing incident of violence against a BJP woman worker surfaced in Jagatdal, North 24 Parganas district of West Bengal on Wednesday. The woman was allegedly stripped and attacked with a sharp weapon, resulting in severe head injuries. She is currently hospitalized. The BJP woman leader recounted that she was attacked by Trinamool Congress workers while fetching water. She accused TMC of causing disturbances in the area and intimidating BJP workers following the Lok Sabha election results announced on June 4.
Somnath Shyam, a Trinamool leader from Barrackpore, denied any political motive behind the incident, stating it originated from a dispute among Muslim women over water in the ESI slum area.
This incident adds to recent allegations of post-election violence in West Bengal, with the ruling Trinamool Congress facing criticism from opposition parties. Earlier, a woman from the minority community was brutally attacked in Cooch Behar for her alleged association with BJP, prompting national attention and visits from authorities.
The National Commission for Women and Bengal Governor CV Anand Bose intervened in the Cooch Behar case, where statements have been recorded and arrests made regarding a separate kangaroo court incident in Chopra, North Dinajpur district.
The incidents have raised concerns over political violence and law enforcement in West Bengal, prompting calls for impartial investigations and measures to ensure safety and security for all citizens.
An incident involving the alleged stripping and assault of a 32-year-old woman in Cooch Behar has sparked a political controversy, with the BJP and TMC trading accusations amid conflicting narratives.
