WB Panchayat Violence: TMC leader beaten to death in Malda, Death toll climbs to 6

Before the Panchayat Election in West Bengal, a Trinamool worker was murdered at Malda Kaliachak. He was allegedly beaten to death. In this incident, the blame was assigned to the Congress. In the last week, six people lost their lives in election violence in the state. Congress is accused of murdering Trinamool Congress in Malda.

According to local sources, Trinamool Congress has nominated this worker in Sujapur Gram Panchayat of Malda. A person named Mustafa was returning home on a bicycle at around 1:30 p.m. on Saturday.

Sources say that at that time attacks were carried out with bamboo, sticks, iron rods. He is also the former leader of Sujapur village. Foreign Minister Sabina Yasmin complained directly to Congress about this incident.

He said that tickets were given in a selective manner in the Panchayat elections. Many miscreants did not get tickets. He left the Trinamool and joined the Congress. He killed Mustafa on Saturday.

The State Election Commissioner summoned a report from the Malda District Magistrate
Although the Congress claims that no one from its party is involved in the murder, the state's politics have once again flared up over the murder. Governor visits Canning today over violence.

On the other hand, Sujapur Gram Panchayat leader of Kaliachak police station in Malda was beaten to death. In this connection, the state election commissioner called the district collector in Malda. The state election commissioner requested the submission of the report.

A total of 6 killed in election violence in the state so far
There are constant incidents of violence during the first nomination for the Panchayat elections. In view of the incidents of violence, the Calcutta High Court ordered the deployment of central forces in all polling stations.

The Mamta Banerjee government challenged the order to deploy central forces by the Calcutta High Court and an application was filed in the Supreme Court on behalf of the Trinamool Congress government.

Three people have died in Bhangarh in South 24 Parganas, two in Murshidabad and one political worker in Malda since the election process began in the state. This again raises questions about peaceful elections in the state.
