Deteriorating Law And Order In West Bengal ‘Appalling’, Says PDP Chief Mufti

SRINAGAR : PDP president Mehbooba Mufti on Sunday said the deteriorating law and order situation in West Bengal after the BJP won the state assembly elections earlier this month is “appalling”.
“The sad deteriorating law & order ever since BJP won the West Bengal elections is appalling to say the least. Where neutral institutions like the police are now being weaponised to turn a blind eye as murderous assaults are orchestrated against poltical opponents like Abhishek Banerjee,” Mufti said in a post on X.
She was reacting to an attack on opposition TMC leader Abhishek Banerjee by a crowd.
The former chief minister of Jammu and Kashmir said this is “certainly not” the change for which people of West Bengal cast their votes.
“Is this the change people of West Bengal voted for? Certainly not,” she added. (Agencies)
