To every citizen of Bengal, Do you want your peaceful evening 'Addas' replaced by communal tension? Think before you choose! Don't let them burn the soul of our state. #SaveOurPeace #SaveBengal

This is the kind of “PARIVARTAN” the BJP seeks to impose on the soil of Bengal. Immediately after the announcement of elections, the @ECISVEEP initiated sweeping administrative changes- replacing the Chief Secretary, Home Secretary, DGP, ADGs, IGs, SPs, DMs, the Kolkata Police Commissioner and even the KMC Commissioner. Such unprecedented interventions raise serious questions about intent and timing. What has followed is even more disturbing. In the shadow of these changes, there are increasing reports of intimidation, where shops are being vandalised, tensions being stoked in the name of religion and ordinary people being made to suffer. We don’t need a “BULLDOZER MODEL”. We don’t need imported politics of hatred and violence. It’s the para culture, the adda, the festivals we celebrate together, the respect we have for each other’s beliefs. THAT’S OUR IDENTITY. For generations, Bengal has celebrated Durga Puja, Diwali, Poila Boishakh, Eid, Guru Nanak Jayanti, Buddha Purnima, and Christmas together without fear, without division and without violence. Yet in just the past few days, we are seeing a disturbing glimpse of the kind of “CHANGE” being pushed onto this land of revolutionaries. The land of Rabindranath Tagore and Swami Vivekananda has always stood for tolerance, harmony and coexistence. For decades, Bengal has been a living example of unity in diversity. Today, that very social fabric appears under strain. The question is: Who benefits from this disruption and at what cost to the people of Bengal? Shame on @ECISVEEP @BJP4India !
