BJP Slams Bengal Police For ‘Barging’ Into Party Office At Night: 'Shameless Display Of Power'

Suvendu Adhikari accused West Bengal police of attempting to raid a BJP office at night, contrasting this with their inaction against alleged TMC criminal Anubrata Mondal's threats.

West Bengal Leader of Opposition (LoP), Suvendu Adhikari, accused the state police of sneaking into the BJP’s party office in Bankura district like “thieves and dacoits” and attempting “to break the gate and barge in under the cover of darkness.” According to Adhikari, such an attempt by the police happened at around 2 a.m. on Sunday, and the perpetrators were cops from the Khatra and Bankura Police Stations.

“This shameless display of so-called ‘power’ was met with fierce resistance from our brave BJP Karyakartas and local Leaders, who stood firm against this cowardly act of intimidation. Is this what Mamata Police have been reduced to; sneaking around in the dead of night to harass opposition workers while turning a blind eye to the real criminals?” said Adhikari in a statement he posted on his official X handle.

According to Adhikari, the same state police chose to remain inactive when it came to the question of taking action against leaders like Anubrata Mondal, who was recently heard in a viral video threatening a police officer from Birbhum district to rape his mother and wife.

"Where is this bravado when it comes to taking action against TMC’s notorious 'lumpen' Anubrata Mondal? This is the same Police force that cowers when faced with TMC goons and their lawless antics. Just weeks ago, an audio clip surfaced of Mondal hurling vile abuses and threats at Bolpur’s Inspector-in-Charge, targeting his wife and mother with obscene remarks. Yet, what did the SPINELESS Police do? NOTHING,” Adhikari’s statement read.

He also questioned the role of police during the recent clashes between two groups at Maheshtala in the South 24 Parganas district last week.

“One can't forget the SURRENDER gesture made by the Mamata Police in Maheshtala a couple of days earlier waving white handkerchiefs towards the stone-pelting Jihadists. Bloody Cowards,” Adhikari said.

He also added that during the communal violence and riot-like situation in the minority-dominated Murshidabad district in April this year, the district police forces took shelter in shops when faced with the rioters.

Reacting to the development, party leader Nisith Pramanik said that the police have become TMC workers.

" It is the police's job to maintain law and order. The law and order have collapsed, but the police act as the TMC workers, raid and vandalise the BJP office... This is an example of anarchy in West Bengal. The police should pay attention to law and order...," Pramanik said, as quoted by news agency ANI.
