BJP taking help of actors, MPs for Bengal polls: Actress-turned-TMC leader

Ahead of third phase of West Bengal assembly elections, popular actress-turned-TMC leader Sayantika Banerjee said Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is making actors and MPs contest elections of MLAs.

"BJP is short of candidates because they're making MPs contest MLA polls and are taking help of actors.

They don't make normal people their candidates, they either make MPs as MLAs or take help of celebrity candidates.

Mamata Banerjee will be CM," said Sayantika Banerjee.

Third phase of West Bengal assembly elections is scheduled to be held on April 06.

Manipur Unrest: Conrad Sangma’s NPP Withdraws Support To Biren Singh Govt, Says it ‘Failed to…’

The National People’s Party (NPP), led by Meghalaya Chief Minister Conrad Sangma, has withdrawn its support to the BJP-led government in Manipur, citing the failure of Chief Minister N Biren Singh’s administration in handling the escalating unrest in the state. The NPP’s decision, which involves its seven MLAs in the state legislature, highlights the growing dissatisfaction with the handling of ethnic violence and protests that have been intensifying since May 2023. Despite this move, the BJP’s hold on the government remains largely unaffected due to its strong majority. This development marks a critical moment in Manipur’s volatile political and security landscape, with the NPP accusing the Singh-led government of incompetence in managing the ongoing crisis. #ManipurUnrest #ConradSangma #NPPWithdrawal #BirenSingh #ManipurCrisis #PoliticalTurbulence #BJPManipur #NPPSupport #EthnicViolence #CrisisManagement #ManipurPolitics #GovtFailure #NPPBreaksAlliance #BJPLeadGovt #ManipurProtests ~HT.97~PR.152~ED.101~GR.344~
