Kolkata, Aug 2 (NationPress) The Trinamool Congress has revealed plans for 19 simultaneous events across Cooch Behar town in North Bengal on August 5. These events will occur concurrently with a program organized by the Leader of the Opposition, Suvendu Adhikari, in the same location.
The timing and locations of these 19 events have been strategically chosen to create a scenario where Adhikari's scheduled march is effectively surrounded by activities put forth by the ruling party.
On that day, Adhikari is expected to lead a march with 65 fellow party legislators to the Cooch Behar district police superintendent's office, where they will submit concerns regarding recent attacks on BJP representatives in the area.
With the announcement of these parallel events by the Trinamool Congress, the possibility of political confrontations between the two factions appears likely.
Political analysts suggest that this move may be a response to Adhikari’s rally in Siliguri on July 21, which coincided with the Trinamool’s annual Martyrs’ Day event in Kolkata. Trinamool leaders accused Adhikari of deliberately scheduling his rally to draw attention away from their significant event.
During her address at the rally, Mamata Banerjee, the Chief Minister of West Bengal, indicated that in the future, the Trinamool Congress would also hold parallel events in response to any political activities planned by the BJP.
Now, the leadership in Cooch Behar has taken a proactive step to materialize the Chief Minister’s directive.
