Former Trinamool leader has cemented his key position in the saffron party amid disarray
As defections, electoral setbacks and internal squabbles continue to plague the West Bengal unit of the BJP, the Leader of Opposition in State Assembly Suvendu Adhikari appears to remain undeterred and is seen regularly touring the districts of south Bengal, particularly his home turf of Purba Mednipur and the adjoining Paschim Medinipur districts.
On November 30, while addressing a gathering in his constituency Nandigram, Mr. Adhikari urged the villagers to set up a “Committee against Police Atrocities (CAPA)”. The Nandigram MLA alleged that the police excesses were going on in the region because Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee had lost from the Assembly seat. Mr. Adhikari had defeated Ms Banerjee by a slender margin of 1,956 votes.
He has announced a new programme under the call “back to the villages” which will take place between December 15 and December 19, when CAPA will be set up.
