A shocking shooting incident involving an aide of Suvendu Adhikari has triggered political outrage and a major police investigation in West Bengal. According to reports, the attack took place after a car allegedly using fake number plates blocked the movement of the BJP leader’s associate before armed assailants on a motorcycle opened fire.
Eyewitnesses claimed that the vehicle suddenly intercepted the aide’s path, creating confusion and panic in the area. Moments later, two men riding a bike reportedly approached and fired multiple shots before fleeing the scene. The victim sustained serious injuries and was rushed to a nearby hospital for emergency treatment.
Police officials have launched an investigation into the incident and are examining CCTV footage from surrounding areas to identify the attackers and trace the suspicious vehicle. Authorities are also probing whether the fake registration plates were used deliberately to avoid identification.
The incident has intensified political tensions in the state, with BJP leaders demanding immediate arrests and stronger security measures. Party members described the attack as deeply concerning and called for a transparent investigation into the motive behind the shooting.
Meanwhile, security has reportedly been increased around key political figures in the region as investigators continue their search for the accused.
