All accused have been arrested after a controversy erupted over West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee's recent remark that triggered political outrage and protests.
The situation escalated quickly, drawing strong responses from opposition parties and civil groups demanding immediate action.
According to official reports, police acted swiftly to apprehend all individuals allegedly involved in instigating violence following Mamata Banerjee’s controversial comment. Authorities have confirmed that the investigation is ongoing and further statements will be made once preliminary findings are completed.
Political analysts say the incident reflects the increasing sensitivity in Bengal’s political climate, where remarks by leaders often ignite large-scale reactions. The Chief Minister’s office has urged people to maintain peace and refrain from spreading misinformation through social media.
Meanwhile, opposition leaders have accused the ruling government of using the issue to divert attention from administrative lapses, while the Trinamool Congress has defended the Chief Minister, calling the opposition’s reaction “politically motivated.”
The arrests are expected to bring temporary relief to law enforcement agencies, but experts predict that political tension in the state will continue to simmer as both sides prepare for upcoming elections.
