রান্নার গ্যাসের মূল্যবৃদ্ধি করে আঘাত মা-বোনেদের হেঁশেলে আঘাত হেনেছে মোদী সরকার।
একদিকে SIR করে মহিলাদের নাম কাটছে, আর একদিকে গ্যাসের দাম আকাশছোঁয়া করে নাভিঃশ্বাস তুলে দিচ্ছে। কেন্দ্রীয় সরকারের বিরুদ্ধে মা - মাটি - মানুষের সরকারের প্রতিবাদ চলছে, চলবে।
SIR-এর বাহানায় বাংলার মানুষের ভোটাধিকার কেড়ে নেওয়ার যে নোংরা রাজনীতি বিজেপি ও তাদের তল্পিবাহক নির্বাচন কমিশন করছে,সেই ষড়যন্ত্রের বিষদাঁত ভেঙে দিতে বাংলার মানুষ আজ ঐক্যবদ্ধ।জননেত্রী মমতা বন্দ্যোপাধ্যায়ের নির্দেশ মেনে আমাদের প্রতিবাদ চলবেই,আমরা কোনোভাবে মাথানত করব না।জয় বাংলা
I am shocked and deeply concerned by the sudden news of the resignation of Shri C. V. Ananda Bose, the Governor of West Bengal.
The reasons behind his resignation are not known to me at this moment. However, given the prevailing circumstances, I would not be surprised if the Governor has been subjected to some pressure from the Union Home Minister to serve certain political interests on the eve of the forthcoming State Assembly elections.
Union Home Minister just informed me that Shri R.N. Ravi is being appointed as Governor of West Bengal. He never consulted with me as per the established convention in this regard.
Such actions undermine the spirit of the Constitution of India and strike at the very foundation of our federal structure. The Centre must respect the principles of cooperative federalism and refrain from taking unilateral decisions that erode democratic conventions and the dignity of States.
Shri @abhishekaitc paid his floral tributes to Kazi Nazrul Islam and took the stage at Nazrul Mancha to launch Tapashilir Sanglap.
For the next two months, our leaders will travel across SC and ST-dominated localities, engaging in meaningful conversations with our Dalit and Adivasi brothers and sisters.
You know elections are around the corner when BJP vultures start hovering overhead, slithering to doorsteps, begging for votes with crocodile tears and empty pledges, only to betray, vanish without a trace, and leave shattered promises in their wake.
But we stand with the people year-round, empowering our Dalit and Adivasi communities through targeted welfare initiatives, amplifying their voices, and safeguarding their rights against BJP's casteist onslaught.
Proud to share that, for further increasing the safety and confidence of women in our city, Kolkata Police is launching two more initiatives from today.
First, several all-women Pink Booths at key city intersections will be commissioned and be operational from evening to midnight, today onwards. My sisters in the city will be able to connect directly with the lady officers of KP for any assistance in these booths.
Second, today evening onwards, several 'SHINING' (as I have named them) all-women mobile patrol teams will also be on duty from 8 pm to 2 AM, patrolling E.M. Bypass and other major city roads used by my working sisters during night hours.
Kolkata continues to be the safest city in the country over the years and I am sure these two unique new initiatives will go a long way in furthering the same.
Shocked again!
Yet again, our Prime Minister aggressively displays his cultural insensitivity to great figures of Bengal. Today is the janmatithi of Yugavatara (God's incarnation in our age) Sri Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsadeva. While trying to hail the great saint on this occasion, our PM added an unprecedented and improper prefix to the great saint's name, “Swami”!
As is well known, Sri Ramakrishna was widely revered as Thakur (literally, God). While his ascetic disciples constituted the Ramakrishna Math and the Ramakrishna Mission after their Master's demise, and those monks were then called “Swami” as per Indian traditions, the Master, the Acharya, himself continued to be referred to as Thakur. The prefix “Swami” was meant for his disciples in the Ramakrishna Order; but the holy trinity of the Order remained Thakur–Ma–Swamiji. Thakur is Sri Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsadeva, Ma is Ma Sarada, and Swamiji is Swami Vivekananda.
I urge the Prime Minister kindly not to discover new prefixes and suffixes for the great Renaissance figures of Bengal who shaped modern India.
Is the @ECISVEEP of the view that directions of the Hon’ble Supreme Court can be openly FLOUTED? The highest Court of the land has repeatedly emphasised transparency, due process, and adherence to official channels of communication. Yet we are witnessing instructions being circulated over WhatsApp rather than through formal, traceable, and accountable mechanisms.
Even more disturbing are credible reports of Special Roll Observer, C. Murugan, issuing instructions regarding the acceptability of birth certificates directly to Micro Observers in a WhatsApp group, to inflate deletion numbers. Need I remind the ECI of the Supreme Court’s categorical directive that the role of micro-observers must remain strictly assistive? Why, then, is statutory procedure being bypassed, and under whose instructions?
Additionally, Roll Observers are designated district-wise, yet it is seen that login credentials linked to these observers are being accessed from a central location in Kolkata. Login Data is being misused to generate queries and specifically target a certain community at the direction of ECI’s political masters in Delhi. Should this matter be independently examined, it will be established that the tower location and IP address of the login device differ from the actual location of the concerned roll observer.
The Election Commission derives its legitimacy from PUBLIC TRUST, not POLITICAL PATRONAGE. We shall pursue this matter before the highest court of law. Further, any person aligning themselves with or acting at the behest of Zamindars of Delhi will face stringent and uncompromising legal action. Brace yourselves!
.@ECISVEEP appears to have one set of rules governing SIR in other states and an entirely different standard for Bengal. We hear BJP leaders sermonise about “One Nation, One Election.” What we are witnessing instead is their B-team in the Election Commission applying electoral rules selectively in Bengal, with the objective of maximising voter deletions.
The Hon’ble Supreme Court, in its order dated 9th February 2026, clearly stated that “affected persons to whom notices have been served shall be entitled to rely on ALL or ANY of the documents referred to by the ECI in the SIR notice, and all such documents, including those referred to in our order dated 19.01.2026.” Yet, in violation of the spirit of that order, and relying on technical vagueness, ECI has now refused to accept financial assistance sanction letters issued under Government housing schemes as valid documentation.
Need we remind the ECI that the Supreme Court observed that, as a constitutional body, it must function in a manner that upholds the trust of the electorate and ensures that every eligible voter is able to exercise their franchise, not create an atmosphere of fear and exclusion? The Commission is constitutionally mandated to protect the people’s vote, not advance the political interests of any party. They are the Election Commission. Not an Election Omission.
In the depths of my inner turmoil over an insidious process that has shattered lives and echoing the collective anguish, pain, and righteous fury of our people, I have channelled these emotions into a humble verse.
In the noble pursuit of safeguarding the health and dignity of people, Sebaashray stands as a luminous testament to compassion, a beacon that pierces through adversity to illuminate lives with hope and healing. Though our camps in Nandigram have now concluded, the vital stream of service continues to flow unabated, ensuring that care reaches everyone in need.
From our health camps in Nandigram I block, 5 patients were referred for care, while 11 more from Nandigram II joined them, totaling 16 citizens who have now reclaimed the precious gift of clear vision. Through free eye surgeries at Kalyani Eye Care, Nimtouri, they have emerged from the shadows of blurred existence, their eyes brimming with tears of joy and gratitude as the world unfolds anew in vivid splendour.
These moments remind us of the vulnerabilities we all share, and the transformative power of selfless service to turn despair into delight.
