In West Bengal’s intense political climate, a viral video from Sandeshkhali has sparked controversy and accusations from several political groups. The video shows Gangadhar Kayal, a BJP functionary, making offensive remarks, sparking a flurry of accusations and counter-accusations between the BJP and the state’s ruling Trinamool Congress (TMC).
Allegations by Bengal BJP President
Sukanta Majumdar, head of the Bengal BJP, has come up with charges that the police produced the viral video starring Gangadhar Kayal in coordination with the TMC. He further stated that the cops broadcast the video using a VPN to disguise their involvement. Majumdar warned of legal consequences, warning that any police officers or anybody involved in the incident could face jail time.
Trinamool Congress’s Response
In response to the BJP’s allegations, the Trinamool Congress denied all charges. They denied any role in creating the viral video and urged the BJP to present evidence to back up their assertions. The BJP, on the other hand, maintains firm in its assertions, claiming that the video is legitimate and denouncing the alleged conduct of the police and TMC. Despite the lack of clear endorsement from BJP leaders in Delhi for the video’s validity, Sukanta Majumdar remained staunch in his claims against the police and the ruling party in West Bengal.
Conflicting Narratives
The various narratives surrounding the Sandeshkhali video have exacerbated the state’s political division. While the BJP accuses the TMC of altering the footage to harm their image, the TMC categorically rejects any participation and accuses the BJP of organizing the violence in Sandeshkhali for political purposes.
Mamata Banerjee’s Accusations
Adding fuel to the fire, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee accused the BJP of arranging the incidents in Sandeshkhali. She has threatened to eliminate what she calls ‘Bangla-Birodhis’ (anti-Bengal forces) on May 13, heightening tensions between the two opposing groups.The video implicates Adhikari, a key BJP politician, but Ghosh, another BJP leader, rejects its significance in the elections, citing video doctoring. Adhikari denies the claims and accuses the opposition of distorting the video to harm him and his party.
Gangadhar Kayal’s Allegations
In a twist in the story, Gangadhar Kayal accuses the TMC of editing a sting tape with his face and voice. He calls for a CBI investigation, stating that the video, which was edited with AI, features Abhishek Banerjee and an iPad, as well as editing and audio issues intended to shift blame for the Sandeshkhali occurrences. As investigations into the validity of the contentious tape continue, the political standoff becomes more heated. The Trinamool Congress and the BJP are locked in a verbal war, with each party fiercely defending its position and accusing the other of wrongdoing.
Abhishek Banerjee’s Response
Abhishek Banerjee, a major person in the TMC, confronts the BJP about the Sandeshkhali video, requesting judicial inquiry. He demands for a thorough probe and challenges the BJP to present real evidence to back up their claims. The viral Sandeshkhali film has become a source of conflict in West Bengal’s political scene, with the BJP and TMC exchanging allegations and counter-accusations. As the state prepares for elections, the validity of the video remains under close scrutiny, further alienating an already split population..
