Now, BJP Will Write The New History In Bengal
West Bengal, the name embodies a wealth of flavors, a rich historical background, diverse cultures, traditions, and a strong sense of political activism. Bengali serves as the regional language, and its capital, Kolkata, is famously referred to as the city of Joy. Previously, Bengal Has experienced the full spectrum of political leadership, from CPM's Jyoti Basu to Budhadeb Bhattacharya, transitioning to the Trinamool Congress under Mamata Banerjee.
However, in the past 15 years, numerous horrific cases have been recorded that remain unsolved. BJP winning in Bengal is historic. Currently, Suvendhu Adhikari, who has assumed the role of Chief Minister of West Bengal, has already been active since the day he took his oath. He appears to be highly dedicated and concentrated in executing his responsibilities as CM.
The initial observation in the state of Bengal indicates that law and order are effectively maintained by police officials who are active in the field both day and night. Post-election violence has also been observed in the state; however, BJP leaders have managed the situation with patience, particularly following the incident where Suvendhu Adhikari's personal assistant was shot after the BJP's victory. Soon after the investigation in the matter, three suspects have been arrested so far. Two of them was belongs to Bihar and one from Ballia, UP.
