On the afternoon of May 21, a large team of West Bengal Police reached Kolaghat in East Medinipur district to raid the rented house of BJP leader Shubhendu Adhikari. This development has come to light before the sixth phase of Lok Sabha elections. Reportedly, a team of 70 policemen reached his residence on the pretext of searching for an absconding criminal. They also searched the house. On getting information about the matter, angry Subhendu Adhikari left his election campaign rally and went to Kolaghat police station to object to the police excesses. Speaking to the media, he said he would approach the Calcutta High Court against the raids conducted by the police at the behest of the ruling Trinamool Congress government. The BJP leader said he has protection from the Calcutta High Court which prevents the police from taking action against him. The Bengal Police raid at the house of Nandigram BJP MLA in Kolaghat comes four days ahead of the sixth phase of Lok Sabha elections, which will be held on May 25 in Purba Medinipur district. A large number of policemen searched the house in search of the local miscreant. Who was absconding in a case. The BJP MLA said that I will approach the Calcutta High Court against the state police for violating the court order. This was done on the instructions of Mamata Banerjee and her nephew. The officers, who were campaigning for the Lok Sabha elections, reached Kolaghat police station with their colleagues in the evening to protest against the raid. Shubhendu said that if the police keeps some weapons at my house in my absence, then who will be responsible? Did the police get the raid videographed? The Election Commission should take action against such useless action of the police. I want to know why the raid was conducted and on whose instructions it was conducted. It is clear that Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee is trying to harass me.
