On Wednesday, the Trinamool Congress (TMC) organized a protest outside the West Bengal Legislative Assembly in Kolkata, opposing the recent demolition drive conducted by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). This demolition, which took place on May 17 near Howrah Railway Station, aimed to clear alleged illegal encroachments and was supported by a significant police presence to maintain order. In response, the TMC has scheduled further protests across Kolkata and nearby areas on May 21, condemning what they term the 'bulldozer culture' of the BJP government. The protests also highlight concerns over post-poll violence, particularly the murder of TMC worker Abir Shekh, which the party attributes to BJP-backed individuals. TMC leaders, including Rajya Sabha MP Dola Sen, have met with police officials to demand swift action to ensure the safety of displaced party members. They criticized the police for their lack of action in addressing violence against TMC workers, asserting that such intimidation cannot be tolerated in Bengal. The TMC remains committed to seeking justice and protection for its members amidst rising tensions in the state.
