Kolkata, June 17 : West Bengal Leader of Opposition Suvendu Adhikari on Saturday took a sharp jibe at Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee.
Taking to twitter, Adhikari alleged, ” Shahjahan Sheikh; the less popular Frankenstein created by Mamata Banerjee, is a “scale model” of Keshto Mondal who has turned Basirhat Sub Division & a large part of North 24 Parganas district into his personal fiefdom. ”
” A renowned Mafia who ruled the roost during the Left Front regime as the Leader of the “Red Flag (লাল ঝান্ডা) Action Squad” was given a Red Carpet Welcome by Mamata Banerjee into her party when the Left Front was about to be ousted, ” he further alleged.
” Since then Shahjahan Sheikh took control over the Fish Farms of the district & established his reign. In 2019, after the Lok Sabha Elections, the Basirhat Sub Division witnessed Post Poll Violence of the worst kind. Shahjahan Sheikh masterminded the attacks on BJP Karyakartas after a significant number of Voters of many Gram Panchayat areas, voted in favour of the BJP, ” Adhikari stated.
” Pradip Mondal & Sukanta Mondal; among several other leaders & workers of the BJP were killed in Sandeshkhali; North 24 Parganas district. As because he had the protection of the highest level, the law couldn’t caught up with him, ” the BJP MLA from Nandigram said.
” Why am I highlighting this today? Because, this person, who owns & operates several Fish Farms, Fish Processing Plant & allied businesses; Brick Kilns & one Shopping Complex at Sarberia More; states in his Nomination Papers that his Annual Income is merely 19 lakh 83 thousand only. The person who owns multiple buildings, several acres of land & has recently got a new house constructed at Park Circus Kolkata; the valuation of which runs into multiple crores mentioned in his Nomination Papers that the value of his land & building is only about 5 crores, ” he alleged.
” Just like, it needs to be investigated how TMC filed almost 40 thousand Nominations on 14th June within 4 hours & 36 thousand Nominations on 15th June within the stipulated time period between 11 am to 3 pm without their candidates queuing up in the Nomination Centres; the suppression of the facts in relation to the Assets & Income of Shahjahan Sheikh also needs to be investigated, ” Adhikari averred.
