Recent communal violence in West Bengal’s Murshidabad district has sparked both humanitarian concerns and a political conflict. These clashes that took place after anti-waqf law protests escalated have displaced many residents of the state, many of whom had to take shelter in neighbouring district Malda and even in Jharkhand. The NCW visited Malda today to assess conditions and support women affected by the violence. The NHRC also sent a delegation today and has sought reports on the situation, citing potential human rights violations. Governor CV Ananda Bose is also on a visit to Malda and Murshidabad. Meanwhile, the Trinamool Congress blamed Union Home Minister Amit Shah and the BJP for failing to maintain law and order, accusing them of inciting unrest for political gain. It has accused the BJP of weaponising the violence in the state to score political points. The BJP has countered by accusing the Trinamool Congress of administrative failure and protecting those responsible.
While this episode has deepened political tensions in the state, the question we ask today is – how will the people of Bengal look at the socio-political ramifications of the violence in Murshidabad, and how will it impact the electoral prospects of the Trinamool Congress and the BJP?
