The political fallout continues after the killing of Chandranath Rath, personal assistant of BJP leader Suvendu Adhikari, in West Bengal. The BJP has strongly alleged that the ruling TMC is responsible for the murder, while TMC leaders have denied the accusations and called for a proper police investigation. Officials stated that the case is being thoroughly investigated and assured that no one involved will be spared under legal procedures. Reports also mention that Rath was allegedly targeted for the past few days before the fatal attack. Local residents described hearing multiple gunshots and witnessing panic in the area as the firing took place near his residence. Eyewitness accounts suggest that attackers blocked the vehicle before opening fire and later fled on a motorcycle. Police teams are examining CCTV footage and forensic evidence, including bullet marks and shattered glass at the crime scene. Meanwhile, the incident has intensified political tensions between BJP and TMC in the state, with both sides exchanging serious allegations.
