West Bengal Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari on Saturday congratulated the state police for conducting raids across multiple locations near Kumrakhali, Basanti, and Sandeshkhali areas and seizing a massive cache of illegal firearms and ammunition.
“Kudos to the West Bengal Police for a Major Breakthrough. On precise intelligence inputs, the Special Task Force (STF) conducted extensive raids across multiple locations near Sarberia Bazaar in Kumrakhali, Basanti, and Sandeshkhali areas,” Adhikari said.
Sharing that the forces have seized arms and ammunition that were “hidden away to disrupt peace,” Adhikari congratulated the “prompt actions” of Director General of Police Siddharth Nath Gupta, the West Bengal Police, the Special Task Force (STF) Team and Basirhat Police District Personnel.

Hitting out at the previous Trinamool Congress (TMC) government, Adhikari claimed that illegal weapons were “stockpiled” and used to terrorise citizens, and had even claimed the lives of several oppostion party workers, including those from the BJP.
Emphasising that those “dark days are over”, the Chief Minister said that the BJP government is “unconditionally committed” to restoring law and order in the state.
“We will continue to track down, unearth, and recover every single piece of illegal firearm across the length and breadth of West Bengal,” CM Adhikari promised, stressing that all criminal activities and “political terrorism” will be completely wiped out from the state.
