BJP's Shehzad Poonawalla Accuses Mamata Banerjee's Government of Failing Women Amid Rising Crime Rates

In a recent statement, BJP spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla criticized the West Bengal government led by Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee for the alarming rise in crimes against women in the state. Poonawalla alleged that the ruling party is not only failing to address these issues but is also complicit by supporting individuals accused of serious offenses, including rape.

Poonawalla's remarks come in the wake of increasing reports of violence and harassment faced by women in West Bengal, a situation he described as a “serious concern” that reflects the government's lack of accountability and commitment to public safety. He accused the state administration of fostering an environment where criminal activities can thrive without fear of repercussions.

“The state government must answer for its inaction and the growing climate of fear among women,” Poonawalla stated. He urged the public to hold the government accountable for its failure to protect its citizens, particularly vulnerable populations. The BJP has ramped up its criticism of the Trinamool Congress (TMC) in recent months, aiming to capitalize on rising discontent regarding law and order issues in the state. Poonawalla's comments reflect a broader narrative within the BJP, which seeks to position itself as the party committed to women’s safety and justice. As the political landscape intensifies ahead of upcoming elections, the discourse around women’s safety and government accountability is expected to remain at the forefront of the campaign.
