Today, there has been a bandh called by BJP over the clashes during the 'Nabanna Abhijan'.
Bengal bandh news: The Bengal BJP chief, Sukanta Majumder, has called for a 12-hour shutdown in the state on Wednesday. The decision was criticized by the ruling TMC.
The Bharatiya Janata Party has announced a 12-hour strike in West Bengal on August 28 to protest the violent police response to peaceful protesters during a march to the state secretariat in Kolkata on Tuesday. The BJP has declared a strike in Bengal from 6am to 6pm on August 28. The demonstrators were trying to reach 'Nabanna' to call for the West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee's resignation following the alleged rape and murder of a doctor at the state-run RG Kar Medical College and Hospital in Kolkata on August 9th.
Violence and chaos erupted in the streets of Kolkata after a protest rally in the city went off course. In response to the event, Union minister and BJP president of West Bengal, Sukanta Majumder, has urged for a "12-hour strike" in the state.
In a scathing remark, BJP leader JP Nadda criticized the Kolkata Police for their harsh treatment of protesters, suggesting that in Mamata Banerjee's West Bengal, supporting rapists and criminals is seen as a virtue.
