The alleged shooting death of Trinamool Congress (TMC) worker Sanatan Ghosh in Murshidabad, West Bengal, has sparked tensions in the area. Ghosh, described as a milk trader and TMC worker, was reportedly attacked by unidentified assailants while returning home on a motorbike. Despite being rushed to the hospital, he succumbed to his injuries.
The incident has prompted accusations from the TMC, who allege the involvement of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in Ghosh's killing. According to local TMC members, Ghosh was targeted due to his active role in the party during the last election.
In response, BJP leaders have vehemently denied any connection to the incident, dismissing the accusations as baseless.
While investigations are ongoing, initial findings suggest that the murder may be linked to an old enmity and a land dispute.
The tragic incident underscores the tense political climate in the region and highlights the need for a thorough investigation to determine the motives behind Ghosh's killing.
