West Bengal BJP President Sukanta Majumdar on Friday wrote a letter to the National Commission for Scheduled Tribes (NCST) requesting the body to intervene in the recent case of atrocities against tribal sisters in Balurghat who had joined the BJP.
In his letter to NCST Chairperson Harsh Chouhan, Sukanta Majumdar said," I would like to bring to your attention that although the police have taken action by arresting two accused Anand Roy and Biswanth Das there has been no action taken against the main accused Pradipta Chakraborty".
No politics please. That is what the people of the millennium Cuttack city seem to be telling political parties trying to claim the legacy of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose.
The resentment is mounting following the BJP’s bid to steal the show during a programme at the Victoria Memorial where hostile vibes between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee were visible to all.

“Why the Prime Minister did not organise the 125th birth anniversary of Netaji here at Cuttack where he was born? I still remember the words of my father who used to tell us about little Subhas Chandra playing in our backyard, his days in the Ravenshaw Collegiate School. It would have been a fitting tribute to the martyr had his birth anniversary been organised here and not in Bengal,” said senior advocate of the Odisha High Court Suryakanta Sanganeria.
