Honoring Sacrifice: Subrata Maitra's Tribute to Fallen BJP Workers

Subrata Maitra, Baharampur's MLA-elect, honored BJP workers slain post-2021 West Bengal polls. Allegedly killed by TMC affiliates, their sacrifices contributed to BJP's electoral success. Winning 206 seats, BJP ended TMC's 15-year rule. Maitra's ritual emphasized remembrance and gratitude for the fallen supporters.

Baharampur’s newly elected MLA, Subrata Maitra, honored deceased BJP workers by performing a solemn ritual and shaving his head. This act was in memory of party members killed after the 2021 elections in West Bengal.

Maitra accused TMC affiliates of orchestrating the violence, asserting that those fallen workers' sacrifices were pivotal in securing BJP's victory in the state's assembly elections.

This victory saw the BJP securing over two-thirds of the assembly seats, ending a 15-year dominance by the TMC, which was reduced to 80 seats in the 294-member assembly.
