In Nandigram, the tableau carrying “Unnayoner Panchali” (van announcing the developmental work done by the state for the people) was attacked at Nadigram’s Block 1 today.
The Trinamul Congress said it is a brazen political assault on Bengal’s development, culture, and dignity.
“Fifteen years of transformative progress under Hon’ble Chief Minister @Mamataofficial have rattled @BJP4Bengal. @SuvenduWB, threatened by Bengal’s unstoppable growth, has resorted to vandalism, intimidation, and fear-driven politics,” the party wrote in its X handle.
This was not just an attack on a tableau, it was an attack on the people’s mandate, Bengal’s heritage, and the very spirit of its citizens. Those who believed fear, violence, and political opportunism could subdue Bengal have been spectacularly proven wrong. Bengal does not bow. Bengal does not submit.
“Just 72 hours ago, the sea of people at our historic rally sent a clear message to the @BJP4Bengal, their support in Nandigram has collapsed. Panic-stricken and exposed, they lashed out, attacking our Unnayoner Panchali tableau and even resorting to violence against women,” The X post mentioned.
MP Partha Bhowmick said: “But let it be clear: BJP’s intimidation will never break us. The march of Bengal’s development will not stop. This shameful assault will be answered decisively by the people of Bengal in the 2026 Assembly elections. Every passing day proves one truth, the BJP is steadily losing its grip on Bengal, while the people stand taller than ever. The attack has proved that Suvendu is scared.”
